The visitor centre at HMP YOI Polmont has become the first in Scotland to sign up to the Breastfeeding Friendly Scotland (BFS) scheme.
The national scheme - which is implemented locally by NHS Boards - aims to raise the awareness of breastfeeding as the normal way to feed your baby as well as support parents to feel confident and relaxed to breastfeed in public places.
Lesley Hetherington, Infant Feeding Co-ordinator and Community Dietitian with NHS Forth Valley’s Public Health Nutrition Team has been delivering training sessions with staff.
