Safer sleeping video - 'Lift the baby'
Over 130 babies die in the UK each year as a result of unsafe sleeping, many because a parent or carer falls asleep while holding them.
We can prevent these deaths - please watch this video at the Lift The Baby website.
The Lullaby Trust also provides information for mothers and their partners on safer sleeping
