Great to see this U.K. parliamentary enquiry into the First 1000 Days launched during #WBW2018! The impact of how we feed our babies has been neglected until now - please share and respond to the enquiry!! @APPGIFI @babyfriendly @babymilkaction
We have launched a new inquiry into the First 1000 Days of Life, and we want to hear your views. Find out more about the inquiry here: parliament.uk/business/commi… #First1000Days

Today on #WASHWednesday, we analyse the key roles #breastfeeding plays in reducing infections such as #cholera. Promoting proper water, sanitation and hygiene during #breastfeeding guarantees improved health for babies. #WASH #nutrition #HealthForAll @ToyinSaraki @GlobalWater2020
