A host of celebrities have shared photos of themselves high-fiving small children to show support for Theirworld's #5for5 campaign, which highlights the 5 crucial childhood development goals for children aged 0-5.

A new report from KANCO and children’s charity Theirworld says that Kenya has made progress over the past fifteen years in improving access to early years care – but more action is needed to ensure every child has the best start in life.

Without it, children from the poorest and most marginalised groups will continue to be left behind their peers and unable to fulfil their potential at work and in the community.

A host of famous faces have shared cute pre-school photos of themselves to show support for the #5for5 campaign, including actors Sir Patrick Stewart, Kim Cattrall, Matt Lucas, Rainn Wilson, newest member of the Dr Who cast Pearl Mackie, X Factor judge Sharon Osbourne, broadcaster Piers Morgan, comedians Stephen Fry, Miranda Hart, Eddie Izzard, and former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Gordon Brown.

Children's campaigner and Theirworld President Sarah Brown launches a podcast series called Better Angels - consisting of 30-40 minute programmes dedicated to helping create real change in the world.
