What is The Big Latch On?
“At registered Global Big Latch On locations around the world, women, parents and families gather together to feed their children and offer peer support to each other. The events are a celebration of breastfeeding, though all types of infant feeding are recognised as valid and supported. Volunteers from within the local community host each location. Hosting a Global Big Latch On creates a lasting support network for the community.” (https://biglatchon.org/faqs/)
