We're excited to announce CLS will lead the first new nationally representative UK-wide birth cohort study in 25 years. Generation New Era will follow the lives of more than 30,000 babies born in 2026, during their early years, and potentially beyond. Read more: bit.ly/4gfttBP

Graphic showing sample sizes in the four UK countries: 16,300 babies in England, 5,000 babies in Scotland, 4,500 babies in Wales, and 4,200 babies in Northern Ireland.

This includes boosts for ethnic minority and low income families, interviews with fathers as well as mothers, consent to linkage to administrative data.
