This six-day programme (16 – 21 July 2025) is filled with FREE, fun activities and events that are designed to support your child’s development from conception to 2 years old.

There’s something for everyone – workshops, play sessions, free swimming, and much more.

The events were carefully designed to help your child learn, all whilst having a blast! Baby Week is city-wide, with events taking place in Manchester’s cultural venues, leisure centres, your local Sure Start Children’s Centres and Family Hubs, finishing with Family Fun Days in parks on Saturday.

Manchester Parent Carer Forum is a group of parents and carers of disabled children who work with Manchester Local Authorities, Education Settings, Health Providers and other providers to make sure the services they plan and deliver meet the needs of disabled children and young people (0-25 years), as well as their families, in Manchester.

We have a steering group of parent and carer volunteers who lead this work and listen to the views of other parents and carers in the local area to make sure they know what is important to them.
