There are a few formal and informal milk bank groups in Bristol. Premature or ill babies benefit even more from breast milk, but where this is not possible, donor breast milk from breastfeeding mums with extra to spare can help to give them the best start in life.
If I get enough milk this is definitely something that I would do.
The Precious Drops campaign has raised £75,000 so far for the milk bank which was opened at Southmead hospital in 2011.
