ACTION
The Parent and Infant Relationship Service (Pairs) works to strengthen relationships between parents and their young children.
The service is part of Lambeth Early Action Partnership (Leap), one of five sites in deprived areas of England delivering the Better Start programme - the 10-year National Lottery-funded initiative promoting good early childhood development.
Leap's services encourage parents to create strong attachments with their children focusing on social and emotional development, communication and language as well as diet and nutrition.
Lambeth has some of the highest rates of deprivation and child poverty in the country, and since 2015, Pairs has worked in the wards of Coldharbour, Stockwell, Tulse Hill and Vassall. It is available to families from pregnancy until children reach the age of four.
