🥛 Formula recall update for families 🤍

You may have seen the recent formula milk recall being shared. If this affects you, it’s completely understandable to feel worried — feeding your baby is such a big part of caring for them, and news like this can feel unsettling.

If you use formula, please take a moment to check whether your product is included in the recall. Full details are available here:
👉 https://www.food.gov.uk/news-alerts/alert/fsa-prin-03-2026?fbclid=Iwc3NjcAPkRI5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAo2NjI4NTY4Mzc5AAEeCW04mIy4SHn1-y71OGr-rYF-QojydtKSPJShkCYIkyI4KGjwNdXxubfFJ9I_aem_FE0RSz4y_BrcjFpNSe842A

If your usual formula is affected, it’s okay to change formula brands if you need to. Babies can usually switch safely, and keeping them fed is what matters most.

If you’re unsure or just want some reassurance, you can speak to your health visitor, midwife, GP, or pharmacist — they’re there to help guide you.

This can be a worrying time, but checking the guidance and making changes if needed is exactly what caring parents do 🤍
Please share so other families are aware.

The healthcare passport ‘All About Me’ was published for those who access Children’s Services at RWT to remove their anxiety about meeting healthcare professionals for the first time.

The 12-page document enables healthcare professionals seeing a child for the first time to understand their medical needs and how they can be best supported.

To find out more, speak to your health professional at your next appointment.

The changing seasons offer a great opportunity to introduce your little one to new words.

When you’re next outside, chat with your baby or toddler about how the weather feels and sounds. You could talk about the feeling of the cold on your cheeks, or the wind in your hair.

💛 Instead of Blue Monday… let’s support Brew Monday! ☕️💬

We’re proud to support the Samaritans’ message that there’s no such thing as Blue Monday. Feeling low isn’t limited to one day in January. Emotions don’t follow a calendar, and no one should feel pressured to be sad just because the day suggests it.

So we’re joining the call to flip the script: out with the blue, in with the brew!

☕ Any day, any time, any drink
Whether it’s tea, coffee or even a glass of juice, taking a moment to sit down with someone for a cuppa and a chat can make a real difference. A simple check‑in shows people they’re not alone.

Tips for being a good listener:
🫶 Let the other person talk at their own pace
🫶 Avoid jumping straight into advice
🫶 Don’t compare their experience to your own
🫶 Sometimes, just being present is enough

📞 You can also talk to one of our health professionals by calling our Single point of Access Hub on 01902 441057

Let’s look out for each other - not just today, but every day. 💛
