HENRY Healthy Families Online Programme - parents & carers in Merthyr, Rhondda & Bridgend - Family support services


What we do

Everyone wants the best for their children, but it can be hard to know what to do as a parent in the early years. That’s where HENRY comes in.

The HENRY Healthy Families: Right from the Start programme is running locally. Join the thousands of families across the country who have benefited from the support and tips it provides for young families.
Research shows that the key ingredients to ensuring babies and young children have a healthy start in life are:
- Parenting confidence
- Physical activity for little ones
- What children and families eat
- Family lifestyle habits
- Enjoying life as a family

The programme covers these 5 themes across 8 weeks and provides everything you need to help get your little one off to a great start.

Who do we support

The programme is for parents or carers of children aged 0 to 5 years old in Merthyr Tydfil, Rhondda Cynon Taf and Bridgend. It is free to join.

Everyone wants the best for their children, but with so much conflicting advice it can be hard to know what to do for the best.

If you have at least one child under 5 years old and can answer ‘yes’ to any of the questions below then HENRY is for you:
- Would you like to feel more confident as a parent?
- Would you like some support to give your child a healthy start?
- Do you wish your child would eat more fruit and vegetables?
- Would you like to reduce mealtime stress?
- Would you like to enjoy being active together as a family more often?
