🌍 World Breastfeeding in Public Day 2026 ✨
Breastfeeding in public isn’t just natural, it’s legally protected in the UK! 🤱💪
✔️ Under the Equality Act 2010, it’s s*x discrimination to treat someone unfavourably because they are breastfeeding. This means you can feed your baby in cafés, shops, parks, public transport - anywhere you’re allowed to be - without being asked to move, cover up, or stop.
✔️ In Scotland, the Breastfeeding etc. (Scotland) Act 2005 goes even further: it’s actually an offence to stop or prevent someone from feeding a child under two in a public place where they’re lawfully allowed.
Today we celebrate every mum, parent and caregiver who feeds their baby with confidence, and remind everyone that you’re protected by law when you do so in public. 💛
Let’s normalise it, support it, and spread the word! 📣
