New batch of wellbeing books for pregnancy and early years available at Worcestershire libraries

WORCESTERSHIRE libraries have announced a new collection of books offering trusted guidance which supports the mental and physical wellbeing of families during pregnancy and the early years.

From conception to age two, Reading Well for families offers essential guidance for parents, carers, and their wider support networks throughout the crucial first 1,001 days of a child’s life, where their physical, emotional and cognitive health is being formed.

Coun Ian Cresswell, Cabinet Member with eesponsibility for environment and communities at Worcestershire County Council, said: “We’re glad to offer the new Reading Well For Families collection.

“Supporting parents and carers during the earliest stages of their child’s life is so important for the whole family. We hope these books will provide a source of reassurance, comfort and guidance when it’s needed most.”

The collection includes reads such as You the Daddy by Giles Alexander, Hello Baby, Goodbye Intrusive Thoughts by Jenny Yip, My Black Motherhood by Sandra Igwe, and How to Help Someone After a Miscarriage by Clare Foster
