NEW FACEBOOK GROUP
This year we're celebrating 5 years of Baby Week with a new resource page, action plan and Facebook group.
We know it's been hard during lockdown but we want you all to 'Stay Safe, Stay Connected' - hence our 2020 theme.
BABY WEEK FOREST
We are working with the Leeds City Council’s Woodland Creation Initiative, Child Friendly Leeds, Leeds City’s Council’s climate emergency response and Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS to create a BABY WEEK FOREST and plant a tree for every baby born in 2020!
