The website has been designed to house all the materials on the ToWe project and provide information about the project and events.

A manual will support Early Years Practitioners (EYPs) knowledge and understanding of wellbeing relating to the dimensions of wellbeing, literature, theory and the international and national political agendas in England, Norway and Spain.  An audit will help EYPs evaluate their provision by identifying their areas of strengths and areas for development. Through this an action plan can be created by EYPs who can select strategies from a suite of strategies, created by the setting partners, which will provide them with guidance on how to enhance the wellbeing of disadvantaged toddlers’.”
