Require all publicly accessible businesses to provide space for breastfeeding

Petition Details

To ensure all publicly accessible businesses have adequate private areas for mothers to breastfeed their babies. This could be a room or even tents/gazebos. Somewhere warm, dry and private when mothers are out with their babies.

Additional Information

As a mother of 4 children and having breastfed them I have always found finding a place to breastfeed when out and about impossible. My eldest son is 17 and my youngest daughter is 8 months old. In these 17 years this is something that has not improved at all. Having visited a theme park this week I spotted several smoking areas but nowhere to feed my baby. The smoking areas were cornered off with ash trays and a few seats. I found myself feeding my baby on a cold wet floor! This needs to change!
