Being able to recognise suspected physical abuse in children has never been more important. Our eLearning outlines how all the key professionals can work together in child protection cases to get the high quality images needed for effective investigation: https://t.co/UUSH0hCUMC

Our review reveals it’s vital that everyone working with families who are living with adverse circumstances thinks about the heightened risk of co-sleeping and works to support parents in making the right choices for their babies #safersleeping #childsafeguarding

The last 10 years has been largely consumed by immediate preoccupations, i.e. managing within austerity measures & BREXIT, leaving little time/thought for #ClimateChange & #SustainableDevelopment. That must change. https://t.co/6sNpZavBz9

[Faculty of Public Health @FPH]

FPH and 15 others have written to political party leaders in Scotland asking them to support the Children (Equal Protection from Assault) (Scotland) Bill at the stage 3 proceedings. We want to empower families to give their children the best start in life https://t.co/fwFC2jMV5X

Daily Mile programme for children to increase physical activity is now entirely funded by INEOS, a large oil, gas and petrochemicals company.

Is this diversion dressed as corporate responsibility?

[Ingrid Wolfe @ingridjohanna66]

On the worrying rise of private industry funded public health:

“we need to know far more about what is being provided, by whom, and with what effects”

Indeed. Excellent blog by @judegreen
