It was great to attend the Wisbech launch event for #Babyweek2025 with Bushra, the Community Pharmacy Engagement Lead. We really enjoyed talking to parents about the services available in local pharmacies including #pharmacyfirst, contraception & flu vaccinations for children

Lizzie and Will from our Partnerships team had a great time speaking at the @BabyWeekUK National Conference today in Leeds. They discussed the benefits of early shared reading, and how Bookstart Baby helps to build bonds from the earliest age. #BabyWeek2025

We're celebrating #BabyWeek2025 - but did you know that it's never too early to start reading with babies? 👶 Sharing stories in the earliest moments supports bonding, brain development, communication skills and family wellbeing 👇 booktrust.org.uk/resources/f… @BabyWeekUK
