About LEAP
Lambeth Early Action Partnership (LEAP) is one of five local partnerships which make up A Better Start — a national ten-year (2015-2025) programme funded by the National Lottery Community Fund that aims to improve the life chances of babies, very young children, and families. We listen to the expertise of parents and carers.Our aim is to help families build connections, and to provide meaningful experiences for parents, carers, and their children.
