Derriford Hospital Safeguarding Team

For more guidance on @LullabyTrust's #SaferSleepweek, check out their campaign – lullabytrust.org.uk/about-us/safer…

It’s #SaferSleepWeek, the annual awareness campaign around reducing sudden infant death syndrome (also known as SIDS). We’re proud to support @LullabyTrust as they explore baby sleep patterns, bust baby sleep myths, and support parents and carers through their own lack of sleep.

From 10th-16th March, we’re supporting @LullabyTrust with their annual #SaferSleepWeek. This is their national awareness campaign for anyone looking after a young baby. They raise awareness of sudden infant death syndrome and advice that reduces the risk of it occurring.

On Tuesday 11th February 2025, the Midwifery Safeguarding team hosted a cake sale to raise money for Refuge4Pets, a charity who help people and animals escape domestic abuse. We managed to raise an amazing £190! Many thanks to those to who got involved in @UHP_NHS

‘Sexual Abuse and Sexual Violence Week,’ which starts on Monday 03 February 2025.

When babies cry it can be stressful and overwhelming. Help is out there and all you need to do is ask. Learn more at iconcope.org #ICONChristmas2024 #ICONCope

Being a new parent is challenging, but there is support out there. Your health visitor is a great source of information. Dads, and dads-to-be, that means you too. Don't be afraid to ask questions and find out more at iconcope.org #ICONChristmas2024 #ICONCope

Christmas can be stressful. If you're looking after a young baby remember to pause at the door and check the three C's - Calm - Are you calm? Careful - Can you be careful? Caring - Will you be caring? Have a great Christmas and New Year #ICONChristmas2024 #ICONCope

Babies cry, even at Christmas, but you can cope. If you need help, then ask. You never know who may have that piece of helpful advice or some spare time to give you a break. Remember the three C's - https://iconcope.or #ICONChristmas2024 #ICONCope

Christmas can be a very enjoyable time. But it can also feel very long and very tiring. If you're looking after a young baby just remember to check the 3 C's before you pick them up - iconcope.org Have a great Christmas and New Year #ICONChristmas2024 #ICONCope
