Has your family used infant formula, or do you work with families who do?
Please help with providing information to help support families better.
The charity First Steps Nutrition Trust and the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Infant Feeding and Inequalities are holding an inquiry to find out more about the costs to families of using formula and the impact on their health, well-being and finances.
The inquiry is very keen to hear from parents about their experiences and also from those who work with families who are using infant formula. In particular, the inquiry hopes to hear from and about a wide range of people, including those involved with the Healthy Start scheme, teenage parents and refugee and homeless families.
There is a straightforward form that can be used or people can send in a description of their experiences:

The inquiry is being led by dietitian Helen Crawley of First Steps Nutrition.
Please do pass on this message to others who may be interested so that the inquiry receives a large number of responses from and about a wide range of families.
The deadline is June 26th.
