Excellent talk from @alandavidprice1 "People say it's all about trauma. They are wrong." Being both pre and postnatally informed is key - #PPNA @rajamukherjee10 summed it up - "It's really important to have data to back this up." #EUFAD @ProfPennyCook @kafyp @FasdSalford

By providing a breadth of resources for parents-to-be and Healthcare Professionals, we have been able to provide clear messaging based on the Chief Medical Officers guidance and information to support healthy pregnancies and aid the prevention of FASD.
