Videos and podcasts
Many children and parents prefer to see a video or listen to a podcast as it offers a different way to understand health information. On the videos and podcasts page there are links to some relevant videos and podcasts covering support for children and young people.
A number of sections in the videos and podcasts page include general information very relevant to children and young people as well as adults. Some information is specific to children such as information from the NHS on looking after babies and toddlers.
