Politicians (and candidates) who are 'Speaking up for Babies'

Too often babies are forgotten about during elections. Babies don’t vote of course, so it’s easy for politicians not to consider what support they need from policymakers.

At least one in ten babies experiences fear and distress due to disrupted relationships with their parent or main carer. So, with an upcoming UK election candidates from all parties are coming together to use their voices to speak up for babies.

You can use the table below to search for your local politicians or candidates, and see if they have agreed to ‘Speak up for Babies'. You can search either by name, constituency or political party and the table will be automatically filtered to show relevant matches. If you don't see your local candidate/s on the list yet, we've put together some advice to help you 'Ask your candidates' to join the campaign.
