"I strongly believe that the success of our efforts to tackle social breakdown and
create a healthy society will depend, in large part, on the efforts of organizations
such as Right from the Start."
David Willetts, MP
Right from the Start, a charity since 1988, was
set up by Sarah Woodhouse to undertake research, in depth and worldwide, into the
earliest roots of stress, fear and violence in children's lives, and then to develop
a healing and creative response.
The overarching aim of Right from the Start is to
give parents, midwives, teachers and others access to baby and childcare knowledge
and skills that can have a deeply transformative impact on children at the earliest
stages of their lives.
In the midst of despairing calls for help and a growing recognition of the need
for protection and prevention, Right from the Start
offers profoundly hopeful, holistic, balanced and practical healing strategies,
common sense and best practice.
Our Trustees are committed to and responsible for Right from the Start's continuing
research, planning and work on the Right from the Start materials and for their
promotion and distribution through every possible avenue.
"Our mission is to create a loving and secure environment for our children, right from the start ..."
Sarah Woodhouse - Founder and Chief Executive of Right from the Start
