Breastfeed Together groups are free sessions where you can chat to infant feeding practitioners and volunteer peer supporters in a relaxed, informal, community setting.
We understand that everyone’s breastfeeding journey is unique and we would like to support you whether you are exclusively breastfeeding, mixed feeding, expressing or thinking about giving some breastmilk.
You may like to come along in pregnancy to help you feel more prepared for breastfeeding when your baby arrives.
Whatever your feeding goals are, we are here to listen and provide evidenced based information, to enable you to make the decisions that are right for you.
There is no formal structure or agenda, just a friendly space to chat and share experiences and tips.
You might also see our friendly peer supporters in your Parent Education classes or on the postnatal ward in hospital.
Find out what groups we have running and book a place.
