Leadsom's plan to give every baby best start to life ‘going great guns'

The former Cabinet minister led a long-running campaign to set up the help and advice programme covering the first 1,001 days of a baby’s life.

And in an exclusive interview with the Daily Express, she revealed 75 local authorities are ready to roll out “Start For Life” services next month.

Ms Leadsom said: “I want to make sure every baby, wherever they live, is supported to get the best start for life. It’s just going great guns.”

Parents-to-be and those with newborns will be able to get wide-ranging support at family hubs.
