The Travelling Fellowship in the Early Years Prevention and Intervention category offers specialists in this area the chance to travel anywhere in the world to observe and participate in diverse strategies and models.
The fellows are then tasked with documenting their trip, evaluating their findings for research and leading initiatives when back on home soil.
Lucy Potter, a family outreach worker from Leeds, successfully applied for a fellowship in 2013 and travelled to the United States and Brazil for six weeks to investigate parental engagement in socially deprived areas.
As part of her time in Canela in Brazil, Lucy was a guest speaker at an annual event Semana do Bebe (Baby Week), which brings together families, professionals and students who work in the early stages of child development.
