A week of education, awareness and celebration!

As we closed off World Breastfeeding week the dietetics department came together to promote breastfeeding, engage with mothers and strengthen the support available to breastfeeding families.

Breastfeeding support is everyone’s responsibility.

The dietetics team invited healthcare professionals and caregivers to dip their thumb in paint and sign off their names in support of breastfeeding.

Breastfeeding for a sustainable start in life, strengthen what works.
