Bradford is a vibrant and diverse city over 500,000 people in the North of England. The District stretches from the urban centre to the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. It is also the Youngest City in the UK with 29% of its population under 20 years old.
Born in Bradford is an internationally-recognised research programme which aims to find out what keeps families healthy and happy by tracking the lives of over 40,000 Bradfordians. We use our findings to develop new and practical ways to work with families and health professionals to improve the health and wellbeing of our communities.
BiB Age of Wonder is a seven-year project capturing the journey through adolescence and adulthood for all teenagers in Bradford.

Each year, this group of young people will be invited to share their hopes, dreams, and fears for the future, and take part in interviews and group discussions. These stories will help us understand how we can make Bradford an amazing place for young people to thrive and fulfil their potential.
