Welcome to Workfeed

Researchers at the University of Reading, undertook a study, funded by the Nuffield Foundation, exploring maternal wellbeing, infant feeding and return to paid work.

We researched the wellbeing, opportunities and experiences of mothers who wish to continue to breastfeed on return to paid work, and how employers could be better equipped to support their employees.

Stemming from this study we have developed evidence-based resources for supporting breastfeeding and return to work.

On this website you will find an overview of the study, a guide for employers and a guide for mothers.
