RCM Approved Workshops from bras4mums

The Royal College of Midwives has given its seal of approval to a new series of training workshops aimed at putting properly-fitted maternity and nursing underwear at the top of patient’s shopping lists.

In line with national campaigns to introduce better breast health awareness and promote breastfeeding, bras4mums.co.uk aims to ensure pregnant and breastfeeding women get underwear that supports major body changes.

The company - which employs a De Montford University trained bra fitter to dispense online and telephone advice free to its customers - is offering health care professionals a practical workshop that throws the spotlight on bras.

New course dates for 2010 have just been announced for the Bra Fitting Awareness Course. Please look at the course flyer and booking form for more information. Courses can be organised for work groups outside of our own organised courses. Please contact us for prices and availability.

Courses are now also available for breast care nurses and peer supporters, and for lingerie shop owners. A Bra Fitting course for specialist areas of work e.g. maternity or mastectomy is now available. Please contact us if you're interested in this course.
