HelpMe Feed

HelpMe Feed is an app for Health Professionals that supports a new generation of mums with breastfeeding. With high quality video resources and in-app communication, HelpMe Feed offers a streamlined and secure way for busy health professionals to help more mothers and babies than ever before.

Launch

The HelpMe Feed app launches in May 2019 in Australia, New Zealand, US, UK and Canada in both the Apple iOS and Android app stores.

Growth
There will be 100,000 healthcare professionals recruited, and onboarded during 2019/2020 across the five countries. This will enable HelpMe Feed to work toward achieving a global reach of 50 million families.

We will disseminate best practice and evidence-based research on breastfeeding to health professionals and promote formal and informal reinforcement of a high standard of clinical practice through peer-to-peer networks. Through events and a recognition programs, we will acknowledge and reward particular healthcare professionals who demonstrate excellent delivery of consistent, high quality support and advice.

Community
