In 1916 a government Department for Food was established and projects were started to feed families. Organisations like the Women's Labour League set up communal kitchens to support the feeding of families and especially of children. Many women who had been suffragettes like Sylvia Pankhurst started to campaign for health visitors, health centres, health education. The programme refers to National Baby Week launched in 1917 with its dramatic slogan: 'It is more dangerous to be a baby in Britain than it is to be a soldier'. The purpose of the campaign was, in part, to give women the education that the government thought they needed in order to be mothers.
