The National Childbirth Trust (NCT) is the largest and best-known charity in Europe for those becoming parents. It is the voice of parents on pregnancy, birth and the first few years of being a parent.
The charity provides a range of support services for parents at local level. Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, the NCT has successfully campaigned for improved care during pregnancy and childbirth and for parents of new babies and promotes the principle of informed choice for women and their partners.
The NCT is now campaigning for a woman's right to breastfeed in public and wants you to get involved.
Women in England, Wales and Northern Ireland can still be asked to stop breastfeeding when in public or to breastfeed out of sight, even in the toilets, which is not acceptable. However, in Scotland it is an offence to stop mothers from feeding their babies in public places.
