Children and Young People
This theme focuses on improving health, wellbeing, and equity for children and young people, particularly those living with complex needs, disability, or social disadvantage.
Our research aims to give children and young people the best possible start in life and help them grow up healthy and well. We explore ways to improve care and support for children and families, reduce health inequalities, and make sure everyone can access the help they need. Working with children, young people, families and communities, we develop practical solutions that can improve services and make a difference across the South West and beyond.
