Family Nurse Partnership Celebrates 10-year Anniversary

The Family Nurse Partnership (FNP) is celebrating its 10-year anniversary and marking the occasion by bringing staff and clients together to recognise their decade-long achievements.

The FNP is a person-centred, preventative intervention programme offered to young first-time parents aged 19 or under, and their children.

It’s designed to cover the first crucial 1,001 days of life, from early pregnancy until the child reaches the age of two years old.

Glasgow Marks Carers Rights Day 2022

On Thursday 24 November, we marked Carers Rights Day and raised awareness of the unsung heroes of our communities, unpaid carers.
