Our awareness campaign is almost here!

by Catriona Taylor | Sep 12, 2024 | Awareness campaign, News

Our awareness campaign is almost here!

We’ve been working away behind the scenes with wonderful people and organisations involved in bringing the campaign to life, to reach those with a concern about their child’s growth to trust their instinct and get in touch.

We’re blown away by the support we’ve had in building the campaign, including national coverage due in print, online and in outdoor ad boards, as well as here on social media, to reach as many parents and carers as possible.

We can’t wait to share the campaign with you this Children’s Growth Awareness Week, and would love your support to spread the message far and wide!

More details to follow very soon.
