Growing Up In Britain

This report, brought together in book form, should have a nationwide impact. It will focus on the early years of life (0-5) and examine the socio-economic factors that influence current child health and development, and discuss the efficacy of certain interventions to reduce inequalities. Underlying themes are: nutrition, injuries and abuse, disabilities, and emotional and behavioral problems. The aim is to raise the profile of child health and place it high on the national policy making agenda.
