JSNA Start Well

Fair Society, Healthy Lives (The Marmot Review) identified giving every child the best start as the highest priority in reducing the inequalities gap that exists between different groups of people. Action to reduce health inequalities needs to start before birth and be followed through the life of the child to improve adult health outcomes. Wandsworth is committed to giving every child the best start in life. This chapter discusses factors including prenatal health, school readiness, healthy weight in children and risky behaviours.
