Every child matters,
but not every child
gets a fair start.
We are
Start Strong
In the UK today, too many babies’ and children’s earliest experiences and opportunities are limited by the circumstances in which they are born.
Early childhood shapes us as individuals and shapes our future as a nation. When children do not have a fair start in life, the consequences can last a lifetime, affecting their health, wellbeing and opportunities, and the future of our society and economy.
Start Strong is building a national movement to ensure all our children have a fair start in life.
Change is possible
We know more than ever about what babies and young children need to thrive.
There is much to build on: strong evidence, committed people and organisations, and the strengths of families and communities across the UK.
With the right priorities, investment and action, we can give every child a fair start.
