Café Milk delivers its purposes by
provisioning three venues facilitated by
Breastfeeding Counsellors (the
subcontractor costs within the
accounts), each once a week during
term time, for 2 hour sessions. Café
Milk also aims to provision some limited
sessions during the summer holidays.
The three venues are all located within
Surrey in the towns of Horley, Redhill
and Caterham. The Trustees work
closely with HCRG Care Group within
East Surrey to enable Health Visitor
attendance at the vast majority of these
sessions. These sessions
predominantly provide support and
practical advice to families with regards
to breastfeeding techniques and health
benefits, but are also able to deliver
support and advice on a wide range of
topics throughout the infant years which
also support the preservation of good
health forthe public benefit.| Café Milk endeavours to offer a comfortable and ‘homely’ environment to its recipients, offering refreshments and lights snacks and also ensures that it has all of the required facilities for new parents and their infants, as such there are a small amount of sundry costs within the accounts. Café Milk also delivered Breastfeeding Peer Support training to eight new Peer Supporters to expand support available during the sessions and expertise within the local community.

social support to new mothers and

where they can share experiences and
receive evidence-based advice and peer
support. The service provisioned at Café
Milk, in partnership with health providers,
ensures that new mothers receive
