Every day, we hear from mums who are doing their very best for their babies. Some are awake at 3am, feeding in the dark, wondering how they’ll keep going. Others are trying to find the strength to continue breastfeeding when life feels overwhelming. These aren’t just “families in need” they’re real people with real dreams, hopes, and fears. And sometimes, all they need is the right support to make all the difference.
That’s why Families and Babies (FAB) exists and to be honest, without urgent new funding, FAB will not be able to keep going. We are fighting to raise the funds we need to continue this work, and without it, we will have to close our doors. That would mean hundreds of families could lose a lifeline they depend on.
FAB have just launched our official Patrons Package, through which your support would help us keep providing the kind of one-to-one breastfeeding and perinatal mental health support that changes lives, the kind of help that turns fear into confidence and isolation into connection.
This isn’t just about keeping a charity running. It’s about giving a mum the reassurance she’s not alone. It’s about helping a newborn get the nourishment that gives them the very best start in life. It’s about standing beside families at a time they’ll remember forever.
By becoming a Patron of Families and Babies (F.A.B), you’re not only supporting breastfeeding families across the UK — you’re also aligning your name with a national charity making measurable, long-term impact.
We have three Patron categories to choose from. Each provides the opportunity to support FAB’s important work whether you’re an individual looking to give back, or a business aiming to strengthen your CSR and wellbeing commitments, we’d love to welcome you into the F.A.B community and give you access to a unique selection of benefits.
Across every industry, organisations are recognising the value of embedding social responsibility and purpose into their business strategy.
Becoming a patron of our FAB is more than a generous act, it’s a commitment to the health, empowerment, and well-being of families. Your support helps us provide vital services such as breastfeeding education, peer support, and access to resources that many parents might otherwise go without.
With your partnership, we can advocate for better maternity care, reduce infant health inequalities, and create a culture that truly supports and normalizes breastfeeding. Every contribution makes a lasting difference, enabling us to reach more families, offer compassionate guidance, and ensure every child gets the best possible start in life.
