Healthy Together, provided by Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust, delivers the Healthy Child Programme to local families in the city.
It initially focuses on the first five years of a child’s life, providing a programme of screening, immunisation, and health and development reviews to all families, as well as advice on all aspects of health, wellbeing and parenting.
Following the Healthy Child Programme framework, Healthy Together continues to provide universal and progressive services for all children aged 5 to 19 years to promote optimal health and wellbeing.
Lots of health information and advice is provided on Healthy Together’s three public health websites:
- www.Healthforunder5s.co.uk (aimed at parents and carers of children under five)
- www.HealthforKids.co.uk (aimed at primary school children)
- www.HealthforTeens.co.uk (aimed at young people of secondary school age).
