Did you know that we recycle all our bottles?! Working closely with our Head of Facilities we can now recycle all our donor bottles as we work towards the trust #gogreener agenda ♻️this also means that we are aligned with the Sally@sterifeed Recyling Charter! #nhsmilkbank
A beautiful story & a 'full circle moment'. I first donated milk in 2008 after my daughter's death, then years later via Milk Bank at Chester #nhsmilkbank. I met Tracy Ahumuza in 2021 after her daughter's death when she had this huge vision for milk banking in Uganda. ATTA Breastmilk Community 🇺🇬 has come far!
An incredible visit from Tracy Ahumuza and to learn more about ATTA Breastmilk Community 🇺🇬. Looking forward to working together in the future. 🤍
