Services HENRY offers include evidence-based training for health and early years practitioners as well as structured individual or group-based family interventions such as the family programme Healthy Families: Right from the Start with HENRY. It also provides parent-led peer support schemes promoting a healthy family lifestyle in local communities, helps childcare settings to enable healthy lifestyles, and produces resources to support work with families [2]
