World Breastfeeding Week Day 5!
World Breastfeeding Week, Day 5 is all about lived experience: the voices of people actually navigating breastfeeding in Defence right now. Policies matter, training matters, support matters… but none of it means anything unless we listen to the day.
Hear From Maj Stott, Flt Lt Lawrence and Cpl Bex on their perspectives- thank you so much for sharing your stories!
Within your organisations- what is the lived experience of your people? #worldbreastfeedingweek #breastfeedingsupport #lactation #livedexperience #ArmedForces

Our teams have worked hard throughout the day to surround the fire, and are now dampening down the area.
Our presence is set to be scaled down, with four fire engines to remain this evening.

Firefighters are making good progress in tackling the large fire in Shootash.
We have multiple fire engines, off-road vehicles, water carriers and command units on the scene, so we ask that you avoid the area to allow access for fire service vehicles.

Last course of the day, its been a warm one. Cold drink ✔️ Fan ✔️. From teaching Clinicians with lots of knowledge, to parents with little knowledge, I do enjoy the variety of courses I teach. Now let's get this done!! @ABCMedical #parents #firstaid #cpr
