Taking place on the 12th May, the national initiative celebrates breastfeeding and the wonders of breast milk.
Run by breastfeeding brand, Medela, the campaign is going back to its roots this year, and taking place in homes, village halls and breastfeeding groups across the UK.
This year will see the return of the ‘in-person’ element after two years of uncertainty, but the event will also retain its virtual activity to ensure even more mums are involved.
The live activity will be as vibrant as ever, with live content planned all day, from Pilates stretches, to real life mum stories, expert advice and a globally recognised breastfeeding researcher.
Charlotte Price, Medela UK’s marketing manager, commented: “We are so pleased to see the return of the Big Breastfeeding Care. Over its eight years so far, we know the event has supported thousands of women and really given them a day to celebrate their achievements so far in their breastfeeding/expressing journeys.
“Our main aim is to give all the breastfeeding and expressing mamas (and mamas to be) a giant high five, so it will certainly be a wonderful national event once again.”
Mums taking part can download decorations which includes everything from bunting, cake toppers and conversation starters. In order to host a cafe, simply email thebigbreastfeedingcafe@gmail.com to register interest and receive details.
