Keep calm and carry on breastfeeding

We’ve had an extraordinary response to our ‘Keep calm and carry on Breastfeeding’ campaign.

 

The purpose of the campaign is to drive home the message that it’s now illegal to ask someone to stop breastfeeding in public, and that women who wish to breastfeed should keep calm and carry on.

 

Breastfeeding has many health benefits for both mum and baby - including reducing the risk of breast cancer.

 

Breastfed babies are also less likely to suffer from asthma, eczema, allergies and diabetes in later life, and require less medical treatment and hospitalisation than bottle fed babies.

 

Want to spread the word?

The 'Keep calm and carry on breastfeeding' artwork can be downloaded and used by anyone who wants to create a poster, t-shirt, mug – or any other way to spread the word about breastfeeding.

 

 

Let us know if you have used the design anywhere and send us your photos.
