Reminds me of the finding that more socially deprived families benefitted less, or were even adversely affected by Sure Start- pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...
Highlights the need to carefully develop delivery strategies for the most vulnerable, to avoid increasing existing social inequalities!

New research from @ippr.bsky.social and Save The Children UK highlights the wide gaps in access to childcare by class and occupation.
The Government must do more to widen access to quality childcare for all families, particularly to those in more deprived areas.

There is rightly a considerable focus on promoting development in the first 1000 days of life, but the next 1000 days are also incredibly important! For health, cognitive outcomes, learning and more, it's essential to give this period attention. Great to see this addressed in this Lancet series.
💡Paper 1 shows that the next 1,000 days are a window of opportunity to promote healthy development.
Yet, only 62 million children (25·4%) currently receive adequate nurturing care, leaving 181·9 million children exposed to risks that threaten their healthy development
