First Steps Nutrition Trust is an independent public health nutrition charity. We endeavour to fill practical and policy-relevant information gaps and provide resources for health workers supporting eating well from pre-conception to five years.

 OUR MISSION
- To influence policies which enable the safe, appropriate and optimal feeding of infants and young children in the UK, and to protect them from commercial interest.

- To ensure that the importance of good nutrition from pre-conception to age five remains on everyone’s agenda.

- To provide conflict of interest-free information on infant milks marketed in the UK, and to promote better regulation and marketing of breastmilk substitutes.

- To provide resources for health workers to support them in their work with pregnant women and young families. 

OUR RESOURCES:
- Are put together by nutrition experts and are regularly updated.

- Can be used in Unicef UK Baby Friendly Initiative accredited settings.

- Are available as free pdf downloads for use by anyone promoting better public health on a not-for profit basis.

Everyone who works at First Steps Nutrition Trust feels passionately about the need for better information and support for good nutrition – and good food – from pre-conception to five years.
