Christchurch Mums Celebrate Breastfeeding
Christchurch Mums Celebrate Breastfeeding with the
Big Latch On
The
Canterbury Breastfeeding Advocacy Service at Te Puawaitanga
ki Ōtautahi Trust is organising a Big Latch On
celebratory event for local breastfeeding mums at the
McFaddens Centre Café, McFaddens Road on Friday August 4th.
Doors open at 9.30am, a delicious free morning tea will be
served from 10am with the Big Latch On at 10.30am (mums all
breastfeeding at once!) on the dot! Natural Magic will then
entertain the toddlers with songs and a puppet show.
The Big Latch On event is part of World Breastfeeding Week celebrations all over the world. #WBW2017 calls on everyone to work together in partnership to support breastfeeding women. The McFaddens Centre Big Latch On event is one of hundreds taking place all over Aotearoa New Zealand in celebration of breastfeeding women and their whanau/families.
We warmly invite all breastfeeding women in the community to join us! Women who are unable to make it to a venue can take part virtually via #BrelfieNZ, flooding Facebook, Instagram and Twitter with their breastfeeding selfies.
