Vote for the best places to bring up children in the UK

Do you love where you live or do you long to be somewhere else? We want to know about the best and worst places to raise a young family across the UK

Have you got access to beautiful parks, fun children's play areas and excellent primary schools? Did your midwifery team making giving birth an experience you can't wait to repeat? Or perhaps your home town is more concrete tower blocks than nappy valley...

Well now's your chance to let us know what you think. We need you to give us honest opinions on everything, from labour-ward facilities at the local hospital to baby-friendly places to have a coffee, from parks and play areas to the library's storytime sessions and the availability of toddler groups.
