The foundations of health and well-being are intricately established during pregnancy and the early years, laying the groundwork for a lifetime of vitality. Health for All Children adopts a comprehensive life course approach to child health, commencing from preconception and extending until the age of seven, encompassing the transition into school and the foundational years of education. This revised edition serves as a concise summary of evidence supporting preventive healthcare and health promotion, offering a practical and community-oriented response to the diverse needs of families and children.

Within each chapter, evidence of effectiveness is presented in the areas of health promotion, as well as universal and selective interventions. The fifth edition of Health for All Children begins in pregnancy and extends until age seven, taking into account government policies and various models of delivering child health programs. Extensive evidence from around the world is critically evaluated and referenced to UK policy and practice.

Health for All Children provides a comprehensive summary of evidence regarding the why and what works in health promotion and health surveillance with children and families, offering guidance on implementing and ensuring the quality of programs. Each chapter includes learning links to online training materials and e-learning resources related to health, as well as freely available resources for practitioners.

It also serves as a valuable foundation of knowledge for those responsible for planning, commissioning, and monitoring child health. By embracing a life course approach and providing evidence-based guidance, Health for All Children contributes to the overall well-being and development of our youngest members, ensuring a brighter future for generations to come.
