Information for professionals

The Starting Well Partnership has delivered public health nursing services for children, young people and families across Worcestershire since April 2020.

Led by Herefordshire and Worcestershire Health and Care NHS Trust, the Partnership brings together professionals from Barnardo’s, Action for Children, and Redditch Borough Council to support ‘parents to be’ and their children during the early years and as they move through school towards adulthood.

Working alongside local organisations and community groups including schools, the Partnership identifies and addresses health and wellbeing needs by empowering families and young people to access support networks and groups in their local community.

Six district teams bring together Health Visitors, Parenting Support Workers, Community Nursery Nurses, School Health Nurses, Health Care Assistants, Volunteer Coordinators, Community Health Connectors, Business Support Officers and Administrators to deliver services into their local communities.

Below is the latest version of the ‘Professionals Guide to the Starting Well Partnership’. Further information can be found by contacting your local Public Health Lead.
