CENTRAL LANCASHIRE SLINGS
Leyland Rotary are delighted to support Central Lancashire Slings in the vital work they do helping families with their new-born babies. President Sue and District Governor-Elect Annette went to visit them.
When Gemma from Central Lancashire Slings came to make her 'Pitch4Pounds' bid she told us how the group, based in Leyland, currently provides weekly drop-in sling library sessions for families to learn about safe baby-wearing and to try different slings and baby carriers in a safe environment. Families have said these sessions have been "essential and life-changing". Baby-wearing supports bonding, maternal mental health and post-natal depression and breastfeeding.
The funding provided by Leyland Rotary will go towards purchasing new baby carriers for the sling library ensuring the most up-to-date versions are available to hire.
