UK Association for Milk Banking

The UK Association for Milk Banking is an organization that supports the collection, processing, and distribution of donated human breast milk. Its aim is to ensure that premature or vulnerable babies receive safe, high-quality breast milk when their mothers cannot provide enough. The association sets standards for milk banks, promotes research, and advocates for policies that protect and improve milk banking services across the UK. This helps improve health outcomes for infants, especially those in neonatal intensive care units, by providing them with essential nutrients and immune protection through pasteurized donor milk.
