This grant is to promote and help the community identify public places and workplaces in the borough that offer a good quality facility, that are welcoming and supportive of breastfeeding both in the community and the workplace. The intention of this grant is to enhance the profile of Halton being a breastfeeding friendly place to live and work. For example, the grant could be used to purchase items of equipment, upgrade existing spaces, infant feeding training or organise events that are family friendly and promote breastfeeding as agreed with the Council’s health improvement team.
Sizes of grant will range from £500-£3000 and will be at the discretion of the Council. Applicants are encouraged to consider if the purpose they are applying for assistance with might be provided by another department of the council, which may be more appropriate in some circumstances.
Closing date is the 7th August 2024.
