Most breast-fed babies get their milk the old-fashioned way. But thousands of fragile babies nationally depend on milk from donors who pump extra ounces.

If your baby needs extra breast milk that you cannot supply – or if you actually produce more than you need, the United Kingdom Association for Milk Banking could help solve your problems. You can find a list of hospitals around the country who hold milk banks on the association’s website or you can call them on 020 8383 3559.
