New resources for parents during coronavirus

Since the start of the pandemic we have been working with local parents and Community and Maternity Champions to produce useful resources for parents during coronavirus

We know that now, more than ever, parents need trustworthy and clear information. Please help us to share these resources widely. We have sent them to local GPs and have been sharing them on Twitter and on WhatsApp via our Practice Champions

Please get in touch if you have any questions about the resources
