Our objectives are to: Promote volunteering of mothers of any age who have breastfed their own baby/s or are still breastfeeding and have the unique quality of being able to relate to mothers from a similar community, culture and values sets Develop capabilities, competencies, skills, understanding and employability of volunteers Act as a source of up-to-date information about breastfeeding and feeding-related issues, the practical task of looking after babies and the importance of attunement, attachment and empathy Provide mother-to-mother breastfeeding and other practical support for new mothers Work closely with other organisations is Spelthorne who are supporting new parents Help promote the benefits of breastfeeding to women less likely to breastfeed and providing appropriate support ## **VOLUNTEER ACTIVITY** ## **Breast pump hire scheme** Our free breast pump hire scheme has gone from strength to strength. The day-to-day administration has been taken over by one of our volunteers and four other volunteers are acting as pump hire agents - organising the collection/delivery of pumps and offering expressing and breastfeeding support to mothers hiring the pumps. The scheme is actively promoted at Ashford and St Peter's Hospital and the midwives have told us how valuable parents find it when they are working on establishing breastfeeding. **THIS YEAR WE HIRED OUT AROUND 90 PUMPS** Parents told us .... _Very easy to collect pump especially during Covid with no contact collection_ _I never felt pressured about timing of giving it back, I was asked if I’d finished and when would suit me so never felt rushed_ _It’s an amazing service and can’t thank you guys enough_ ## **VOLUNTEER ACTIVITY** ## **Volunteers Ashford and St Peter's Hospital** ## **WHAT'S NEXT?** Next year we will look at training more volunteers alongside our pump hire loan scheme ## **FINANCIAL REPORT Financial Report for Spelthorne Breastfeeding Friends as of 31/3/2023** ||**Spelthorne Breastfeeding Friends**
