By law, all infant formula is nutritionally the same - despite the manufacturer’s different pricing. We thought our customers should know. Proud of our latest campaign with Feed, which the Competition & Markets Authority have recommended in their report this morning. #FormulaForChange

A good day for infant feeding choices. Great to speak to ITV News about ending patronising and punitive rules preventing families using points to buy formula, and thrilled Feed is bringing better information on formula to families with Iceland Foods ❄️ itv.com/watch/news/par…

If you’ve been into Food Warehouse, or clicked on Iceland Foods ❄️ website to buy #infantformula recently, you might have spotted these! They’re new shelf labels that Feed & Richard Walker are piloting, to share government & public health info on formula with the aim of…. 🧵 (1/)

The bust of Sir Winston Churchill sits in Trump's Oval Office. He was an immensely brave leader who visited Washington, dressed in fatigues, seeking support against a despot. We all know what he would have made of today's unedifying spectacle and whose side he would have been on.

This is an amazing play. It was startling though that it was stopped twice last night in the abortion scene because audience members fainted. Abortion today is not like in the play, yet blood and pain remain standard parts of women’s reproductive experiences. But still hidden.

The closure of the maternity unit highlighted on BBC Radio 4 Today right now raises so many issues about how we provide good reproductive healthcare across the lifetime - contraception, abortion, birth - to a generation of women having children later, if at all.

So pleased to see Morrisons now accept loyalty points for the purchase of infant formula following the Feed campaign and Competition & Markets Authority recommendations. Hoping to see others follow in ditching a daft rule that punishes parents and stigmatises choices. metro.co.uk/2025/03/26/ano…

The problem remains though that the clinically unnecessary consultation with a pharmacist is a barrier to access, puts women off, wastes time and money. The morning after pill should be sold straight from the shelf - it’s extremely safe. bbc.com/news/articles/…

If only people could see the number of women who come to us with permanent harm either to mother or baby as a result of traumatic vaginal birth or emergency c-section, perhaps more would ask for planned c-section.

Can't help feeling 'deny women pain relief during labour' isn't the solution the coroner seems to think it is - in fact it's the choice the unit already made when criticised in a 2022 inspection because they didn't have adequate staff to provide care for women using analgesia
