FASD Hub

Our FASD factsheets have been written by the FASD Hub Team with the support of Adoption UK Education Leads in England and Wales, using their personal and professional knowledge of FASD to build a comprehensive bank of factsheets for caregivers and professionals. New factsheets are regularly added, so if you can’t find what you want, call our helpline and we will be able to help. We've grouped these factsheets by nation to help you find what you're looking for.
