Information is not available in the format requested. The table shows the number of families actively taking part on the Family Nurse Partnership Programme (FNP) across England in each of the last five calendar years for which information is available.

The FNP lasts for approximately two and a half years, from early pregnancy until the child’s second birthday. Some people can leave the programme before their child is two for a variety of reasons.

There are currently over 16,500 FNP places available in England across 135 local authority areas.
