Crawley Breast Feeding Peer Supporters

EDM number 753 in 2008-09, proposed by Laura Moffatt on 10/02/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Health education and preventive medicine.

That this House congratulates the graduates of the Breast Feeding Peer Supporter Programme in Crawley who have studied for many weeks to help new mums start breastfeeding and continue for as long as possible; notes that the Peer Supporters are mums themselves who not only give their time and experience to help new mothers understand the benefits of breastfeeding by improving the health and life chances of their baby but also make themselves available to give advice and tips if problems occur; recognises that the Peer Supporters play an important role in complementing the work of health professionals in Crawley and are valued members of a team; and hopes that Michelle Neale, Annmarie Harvey, Tracy Norton, Christina Irvine, Andrea Roberts, Jo Saunders, Christina Stevens, Sarah Glazier, Farzana Iqubal, Samantha Bateman, Sarah Parsons, Helen Burgess, Joanne Thomas, Natasha Crump, Alison Scrase, Sharon Wright, Fathima Azmy, Nicola Moore, Bianca Martin, Karen Armitage, Sarah Robinson, Tracy Tarbin, Hazel Ellis, Louise Gibbs, Su Austin, Sarah Moreman, Anne McKeever and Elspeth Elkins are an inspiration to other mothers to join them in this very important role.

This motion has been signed by a total of 21 MPs.
