Ten New Groups
Evaluation Launch
In July, a launch meeting was held in London to
celebrate the success of the Ten New Groups
Project and was attended by the Project Team, new
group Leaders and prominent people from the
breastfeeding community. The main part of the
event was to see how the Project had impacted on
the new Leaders and the mothers who had attended
their groups. Visit 10 New Groups
Project to read the summary and access the
full Evaluation Report
Fundraising and
Volunteering
People have been asking for ways that they can
get involved with LLL, by fundraising and
volunteering. We have set up some pages of ideas
to get you started. Look under How you can help
and Getting
involved. Read about how some of our
fundraisers and volunteers have got on.
We are being approached by more and more people
who are looking for a career in midwifery and are
enquiring about paid posts or volunteering with
LLLGB. We do not have any paid breastfeeding
support posts, but you if you would like to
volunteer with your local group, you can contact
them via our Local
Groups page. We appreciate all the help that
you can give!
Thank you from mothers everywhere.
