We had a wonderful morning yesterday celebrating National Breastfeeding Week in Roscommon Arts Centre.

It was a lovely morning spent with Mum's, Grandparents and babies full of warmth, support and information which saw the launch of a new QR code as a single point of access for information on breastfeeding resources, groups and trusted information which will be available for all new and expectant Mums across the county.

We continue to work together to ensure that Roscommon is Breastfeeding Friendly with businesses across the county signed up to our pledge to welcome feeding Mums and babies to their premises.

🌿 Let Me Be Outside 🌿
The “Let Me Be Outside” campaign, spearheaded by Roscommon CYPSC, highlights that Outdoor play is essential for healthy childhood development, helping children build confidence, creativity, resilience, friendships, and overall wellbeing.
Research continues to show that many children are spending less time outdoors than ever before.
Increased screen time, busy schedules, traffic concerns, and reduced access to safe green spaces are some of the contributing factors to this.
By encouraging more opportunities to play, explore, and connect with nature, we can help create healthier and happier childhoods for all children. 💚
