Southend Supports Breastfeeding is a public health scheme, supported by Southend Association of Voluntary Service (SAVS) and is part of the A Better Start Southend Legacy.
Our mission is to invite businesses and organisations to sign up to this scheme that aims to create a culture that supports parents to feel comfortable breastfeeding their children in recognisable breastfeeding-friendly spaces.
The team raise awareness by attending local events with their breastfeeding-friendly tent, posting about health campaigns, and signposting to local support on our social media pages. We also offer a monthly drop-in session for parents who might need breastfeeding, sleep or sling support, or just to connect with other breastfeeding families.
Find your nearest breastfeeding and baby-friendly venues with our simple to use interactive map. All our venues have been verified by the Southend Supports Breastfeeding team.
