World Breastfeeding Week (1st to 7th August) Posted or Updated on 3 Aug 2022

There are many benefits of breastfeeding, for both mother and baby, including reduced risks of various illnesses and diseases. In some cases, these benefits continue throughout life. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/baby/breastfeeding-and-bottle-feeding/breastfeeding/benefits/

If you are breastfeeding and finding it challenging, there are plenty of options to find support. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/baby/breastfeeding-and-bottle-feeding/breastfeeding/help-and-support/

World Breastfeeding Week 2022 is focused on promoting the warm chain of support for breastfeeding. Examining various roles, the warm chain demonstrates how each of us can affect the outcomes for mothers and infants in the first 1000 days of life. https://waba.org.my/warm-chain/
