Fantastic to hear today’s announcement from @wesstreeting that the government will prioritise children’s health & child health services👏This is very welcome news 👶🏾👶🏼👶🏿
Currently, child health services are seriously underpowered to meet the scale of need-this must be a priority

BBC Radio 4 Today@BBCr4today · Jan 1

“Parents will take bullets for their children… I don't think that's reflected sufficiently in the state.”

Health Secretary Wes Streeting says healthcare for children hasn't been given the 'priority it deserves', in an interview for the start of the Today's Babies series.
