Awareness campaign launched: Leave no shadow of doubt

Awareness campaign launched: Leave no shadow of doubt

A new awareness campaign has been launched by our charity to reach families with a concern about their child’s growth, to encourage them to leave no shadow of doubt, trust your instincts and get in touch with the CGF.

It’s been a hugely exciting week at the CGF, as we launch our awareness campaign Leave no shadow of doubt. Launched during this year’s Children’s Growth Awareness Week, the awareness campaign is a key part of our work to raise awareness and understanding of growth concerns and conditions, to support families in the child growth community, and to improve detection, and support the earlier diagnosis of, undergrowth and overgrowth conditions. The campaign has been made possible thanks to funding from Sandoz along with the CGF’s collaboration with and support from a number of organisations.

Kicking off the awareness campaign we’ve had fantastic digital mall and roadside boards across England and Scotland displaying the campaign imagery and wording, as shown in these super photos – Sally and Laura from our CGF team spotted a campaign board at one of the various Birmingham locations it’s on display during Children’s Growth Awareness Week, and there was an evening spotting of the campaign in Tooting, London!

We’ve also had wonderful coverage in national print media, with coverage in The Sun (mum and child image) and in The Times (dad and image), helping us reach as many families as we possibly can to encourage them to trust their instincts about their child’s growth. 
We have a range of images we’ll be sharing on social media to reach families who may need our charity’s support, including these images encouraging those who are concerned about their child’s growth to leave no shadow of doubt, trust your instincts and get in touch with the CGF to discuss next steps.Â
