•1. Nulliparous women < 28 weeks gestation
•2. Assessed by the midwife as having specified social risk through systematic assessment.
•Nulliparous is defined as never having given birth to a child; this will include women who have had a miscarriage/s or termination/s of pregnancy. We have chosen under 28 weeks gestation as an inclusion criterion to give adequate time for the Pregnancy Outreach Worker (POW) service to impact on the outcomes.

•1. Those under 16 years of age due to the complexity of gaining informed consent from this group
•2. Teenagers recruited to Family Nurse Partnership (FNP), but do not expect this to greatly affect recruitment to ELSIPS. One of the primary care trusts (PCTs) (South) participating in this trial is also involved in a national trial of additional support to pregnant teenagers, called the Family Nurse Partnership (FNP). The FNP intervention is health professionals providing intensive support throughout pregnancy up to 2 years after birth.
