The Centre for Family Research are hosting 3 events at the Cambridge Festival:

We Are Family April 3rd, 6-7pm

Professor Susan Golombok will be in conversation with Alex Graham, creator of Who Do You Think You Are? about her new book, We Are Family: What Really Matters for Parents and Children. Register here.

Set Up for Life Monday 29th March, 6.30-7.45pm

As part of this event, Professor Claire Hughes will describe how a parent’s emotional state can play a role in outcomes for the baby; this link with postnatal wellbeing is equally strong if the father had a ‘difficult birth’ emotionally. Register here.
