Reg Bailey, Chief Executive of Mothers' Union, has been asked by the government to chair an Independent Review of the commercialisation and sexualisation of childhood.

The review has been commissioned by Sarah Teather MP, the Minister for Children and Families, and is part of a strong commitment made by both David Cameron and Nick Clegg to give a real measure of support to family life.

Rosemary Kempsell, the Worldwide Presdient of Mothers' Union said "We are delighted that Reg has been asked to chair this independent review as Mothers' Union is absolutely committed to seeing children as children, not simply as consumers. We have been involved with the welfare of children for many years, but have more recently launched our Bye Buy Childhood campaign in precisely this area because so many parents express their concerns to us."
