Foundations for a happy healthy future

The First 1000 Days is a health improvement programme led by Public Health Wales.

It was established in response to strong evidence that suggests the period during pregnancy and up to the child’s second birthday offers the greatest potential for impact in both improving outcomes and reducing inequalities.

A key aim of the programme is to support the system to understand and act on the best available evidence.
