Women and Children First UK

Who we are

Women and Children First was established in 2002 to pioneer approaches that support communities to solve problems themselves. We want a world where all women, children and young people can survive and thrive.

We are pioneers at empowering local communities, enabling women to take the lead in achieving this vision through community health groups. We guide them to overcome their problems, bringing people together to find the answers they need. Our world-class approaches are effective and recommended globally.

The charity is also developing a number of new pilot initiatives and innovations, including trialling personalised calendars, giving women information about their antenatal and postnatal care appointments.
