We are here to give more children in the UK a fairer start in life, which leads to improved long term outcomes around health, wellbeing, employability and inclusion. • Currently operating in 5 locations in the UK and growing. • Over 300 children per location per day. • Over 30 FREE classes per location per day. • Providing a vibrant, engaging Hub for local services to reach families in need. • Helping families who fall in the bottom two deciles of society to grow together. • Helping parents to be better parents and to access more support in the critical early years. Our early childhoods, the time from pregnancy to five, fundamentally shape our whole lives (Royal Foundation, 2024). 80% of neural connections, which influence our thinking, behaviour, resilience, and response to stress, are formed by age 2 (Johnson & Smith, 2016). Between 2010 and 2022, funding for Sure Start decreased by over two-thirds and over 1,340 centres closed (Carneiro et al., 2024). The cost of missed opportunities in early childhood, including long-term expenditure associated with adverse childhood experiences, was estimated at £16.13 billion for 2018/19 in England alone (Office for Budget Responsibility, 2020).
