Show your support for the UK Breastfeeding Manifesto with stylish tops
The Breastfeeding Manifesto is the work of over 20 British organisations and charities who are trying to ensure that there is more support and information for mothers who wish to breastfeed. It was born out of a concern for the falling numbers of breastfeeding mums in the UK, and the desire to ensure that women from every socio-economic group in the land has a clear choice available to them.
Now, just in time for Christmas, they've brought out a range of tops for those who wish to support their aims. I like that there are designs for men as well as women and children; the long sleeves and body are cozy choices for winter too. With a choice of neckline for the ladies, and two different positions and colours for the graphic, this is one of the more stylish charity items of clothing I've seen. Only one thing puzzles me - did they not think of bringing out an actual breastfeeding version?
Prices start at £12, and postage and packing is free in the UK, or £2.00 outside it.

That is a nice looking top, but I'm with you; my immediate reaction was, "how is that shirt related to breastfeeding?" It doesn't look like it's great for breastfeeding (imho).

It's worth noting that, though the description on the site says, "This has been designed to flatter women of all shapes and sizes," the shirts are only available up to a size UK 16-18.
So not only are the shirts not breastfeeding-friendly in design, but they seem to have been designed for only some shapes and a few sizes.
