Declarations
:
: The protocol for BiBBS recruitment and collection of routine outcome data was approved by Bradford Leeds NHS Research Ethics Committee (15/YH/0455). Research governance approval was gained from Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The existing ethics includes approval for the evaluation of Better Start Bradford interventions using quasi-experimental methods, including the use of cohort participants to create control groups. The current evaluation is thereby covered by the above-mentioned ethical approval. BiBBS takes written informed consent from all participants (ie. parents of children).Baby Steps is delivered as a part of usual practice. Ethical considerations with regards to the delivery of the programme can be found in Baby Steps’ service design plan, and issues arising are managed by the service delivery team and BSB as service commissioners, in accordance with local guidance, e.g. such as safeguarding procedures, access to appropriate mental health support. Key members of the research team are trained in good clinical practice.
