NEON (Nurture Early for Optimal Nutrition)

Dr Clare Llewellyn is a co-investigator on the Nurture Early for Optimal Nutrition (NEON) programme, which aims to optimise infant feeding, care, and dental hygiene practices among children under 2 years old, within communities of South Asian origin in East London. The second phase of the project started in December 2019 and is a feasibility randomised controlled trial, to develop the intervention for South Asian communities across more boroughs in East London. This is funded by the NIHR Academy in partnership with the Tower Hamlets GP Care Group CIC and the London Boroughs of Tower Hamlets, Newham, and Waltham Forest, and supported by ARC North Thames. This phase of the project will run until May 2023. You can read more about the NEON project here: https://www.rsph.org.uk/nihr-applied-research-collaboration-arc-north-thames.html
