Best Beginnings, would like to take this opportunity to thank all those sites who expressed an interest in the North of England Breastfeeding Impact Study and for inviting us to your local network meetings.

We are delighted to announce that we have successfully recruited the three sites for the two year study, one from each of the Northern regional networks, as follows:

• Cheshire West and Chester - North West Site
• South Tees - North East site
• Leeds - Yorks and Humber site

We would like to inform all areas that if you were not one of the selected localities where the study is taking place or where our embedding services are not currently being rolled out, we would be pleased to arrange further meetings to discuss our resources and local embedding services.

These services are designed to assist and support your current local strategies and interventions in relation to early parenting and infant feeding.

Please do not hesitate to contact Fiona Dry, North of England Regional Facilitator via [email protected] for further information.
