New Training Course dates for 2010

After a busy and difficult year we're delighted to be able to offer our popular Bra Fitting Awareness course again in 2010. This RCM accredited course is proving popular with midwives and breastfeeding supporters alike, as well as maternity and lingerie shops wanting to specialise in maternity and nursing bras.

Please see our current confirmed dates on the downloadable flyer, along with the 2010 booking form with new prices.

Recent attendees said:

"I really liked seeing the effect of different bras in the same size or different styles and how they fitted the model. It was good being made to think about how bras are important for the mums we support and now feeling confident to talk to them about it." Laura, Infant Feeding Support Worker

"Very helpful in looking at ways to approach Mums to have a discussion about bras", Christine, Midwife

We are also able to deliver the course to suit local needs. Please contact us to discuss details.
