Our breastfeeding drop-ins are a great place to meet other mums and get one to one support from our incredible counsellors.
** Covid-19 Update on infant feeding support in the local area **
We have moved our face-to-face feeding support drop-ins to telephone consultations with our friendly breastfeeding counsellors, Liz and Geraldine.
Hounslow Residents are asked to please contact the Health Visiting Team on 0208 973 3490 and simply request a call back from Liz or Geraldine.
Richmond Residents are asked to please DM us on facebook or email the Branch (twickenham@nct.org.uk) to request a call.
Please note this service is free and open to all local families.
An updated list of where and when these drop-ins are can be found on the document link on this page. However this can change so please call ahead to ensure it is open.

Support our drop-ins
The weekly drop-in in Twickenham is open all year round but it costs £10,000 to run.In 2018, we were fortunate to secure funding for it but we still need your help. If you have benefited from the Twickenham Green breastfeeding drop-in and would like to donate, we have a dedicated Just Giving page, please click here to donate.
Thank you for your support.
