The Devon Positive about Breastfeeding Scheme is available to all Devon businesses, venues or organisations. These businesses can be public facing (e.g. cafes) or non-public facing and by signing up they are giving a message to their community, including their staff, that they are positive about breastfeeding. Businesses can choose to sign up individually or across a whole group of premises.

By signing up you promise to:

  • provide a positive attitude towards breastfeeding
  • ensure all employees and volunteers are aware of the scheme and read the Staff and volunteers guidance
  • display the Devon Positive about Breastfeeding certificate of commitment in your premises (if appropriate)
  • make sure all staff are aware of the law in relation to mothers breastfeeding in public and recognise that a mother is legally entitled to breast or bottle feed her baby in public, and in neither case should be asked to stop.
