The Sure Start partnership board in Salford, Manchester, building on the success of a programme in Seedley and Langworthy, is extending its scope with fresh help for babies and young children, while launching a new programme in nearby Winton.
Councillor John Warmisham, chair of the partnership, said, 'Sure Start aims to ensure that all babies and pre-school children have access to the best possible opportunities to enable them to reach their potential.' The extension of the Seedley and Langworthy project includes:
* two visits to mothers during their pregnancy by a midwife
* three visits by a health visitor, just before and after the birth
