November 2018 APPG Meeting – The Case for Action

On 27th November, the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Children and the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Conception to Age 2 – both chaired by Tim Loughton MP – held a joint meeting about infant mental health. This was a fantastic opportunity to hear from parliamentarians and civil servants about the important work that is underway in Westminster and Whitehall to promote the emotional wellbeing and development of babies and young children. Attendance at the meeting was fantastic, with people sitting on the floor and spilling out into the corridor! This bulletin contains a summary of the event.
