ICON

Abusive Head Trauma (AHT), previously known as Shaken Baby Syndrome, is a devastating form of child abuse.

The ICON Programme is a preventative programme, based around helping parents cope with a crying baby. The word ‘ICON’ represents the following message:

I – Infant crying is normal

C – Comforting methods can sometimes soothe the baby

O – It’s OK to walk away

N – Never, ever shake a baby
