Babies and Breastfeeding Information Encouragement Support (BABIES)
Winchester NCT Branch runs BABIES, which is a weekly drop-in breastfeeding support group for mums seeking support and information about breastfeeding. It is run by Jane Moffett and Jennie Gavin, both NCT Breastfeeding Counsellors, and is held weekly on Wednesday mornings at the Lanterns Children’s Centre Winchester. The drop-in sessions are open to any breastfeeding or pregnant woman in and the surrounding area and no appointment is necessary.
BABIES Funding Crisis
BABIES costs approximately £5,000 annually to run and is available 51 weeks of the year. It was started in May 2007 and has received funding from the NCT Winchester branch, An Awards For all Grant and donations from Lanterns Children's Centre. These funds have now been exhausted and BABIES will be forced to close in 2010 without new funding. BABIES is now only running by very kind donations and fundraising by users of the service, their friends and families and the local community.
