The plight of the infant feeding support services in Blackpool was raised again at the All Party Parliamentary Group on Infant Feeding and Inequalities at the Houses of Parliament this week. It was first mentioned at the July meeting, and this prompted the visit in September from MP Alison Thewliss, and the offices of MPs Paul Maynard and Gordon Marsden, already reported here.
As this issue continues to be a concern at the highest levels, this campaign will continue to fight for an infant feeding specialist role in Blackpool, supported by a team of well trained and well supervised breastfeeding peer supporters.
As we have further updates to share, you will find them here!
