Joining LLLGB through membership is a great way to pay forward the support you receive, and helps to make sure LLLGB continues to exist for mothers of the future.
LLLGB supports thousands of mothers and babies every year. LLL support is free to all mothers and their families, and to all those interested in breastfeeding.
Your money goes straight towards funding our services for mothers like you, including:
- our telephone helpline
- meetings across Britain
- resources that local groups use
- our volunteer Leaders’ on-going training
- Members receive reduced rates for all LLLGB workshops, conferences and other events.
- Membership also supports our work promoting “a better understanding of breastfeeding as an important element in the healthy development of the baby and mother” (LLLI mission)
- Some groups offer further benefits to members: find out what’s on offer locally at your next meeting
What our members say:
“I pay my subscription to LLL as the support is invaluable. I’ve gone from crying because I’m a hormonal mess to crying because there are wonderful supportive people out there, who have been there, and who care”, Nicky, member LLL Shipley
“I found my local groups so supportive – I’m a member because I want to give something back to them”, Davina, member LLL Calderdale
“I’m a member of LLLGB because I want them to be there for my daughters”, Bonnie, member LLL
All of our members receive six issues a year of our members’ newsletter Breastfeeding Matters.
