Dudley 0-19 Service – Needs your help!
How can we support you, to ensure your children are ready to learn at 2 and ready for school at 5?

Health Visitors and School Nurses within the Dudley 0-19 Service understand that this time of year can bring many thoughts and preparations as your child gets ready to start school. We recognise that each child develops at their own pace, and that starting school can be a big step for both children and parents alike.
Some children may need a little more support to get school-ready, and that’s perfectly normal. Our service is here to help you support your child’s health, wellbeing, and development—so they are ready to learn at two and prepared for school at five.
To help us continue to improve and tailor our support, we would really value your feedback. If you could take a few moments to complete the short survey below, it would greatly assist us in shaping our service to meet your needs more effectively.

Diabetes is serious – but spotting it early can make a big difference.

Your NHS Health Check includes:
✔️ Diabetes risk check (HbA1c)
✔️ Blood pressure, weight and lifestyle review
✔️ Cholesterol test
✔️ Simple advice and support if needed
