East Midland’s Only Milk Hub!
Lauren's Milk Hub at EMFW
Lauren’s Milk hub is the one and only milk hub in the East Midlands, fully funded by a National Lottery Grant and run in partnership with Chester milk bank.
The hub stores milk donated by mothers for use within hospital neonatal intensive care units and to families nationwide. The hub provides safe, screened donor milk.
Donor milk can be life-saving, particularly for premature babies who are at risk of serious life threatening conditions that carry higher mortality rates than childhood leukaemia.
When a mothers milk is not available, donor human milk helps protect babies from these life threatening conditions.

We must also remember to offer a huge thanks to Maria and the Team at Notts TV, for covering the opening and helping us to spread the word.
Not forgetting, of course, the Team – East Midlands Freewheelers Volunteers. Without whom, none of this would be possible!
