The World Health Organisation recommends mothers worldwide to exclusively breastfeed infants for the child’s first six months to achieve optimal growth, development and health. Thereafter, the babies should be given nutritious complementary foods and continue breastfeeding up to the age of two years or beyond. It is with this in mind that U Family launches Project Liquid Gold.
About U Family
NTUC established the Family Development Unit in October 2007 to build up a community of strong and happy families in Singapore with the development of family-focused initiatives and programmes to strengthen family bonds. The unit was subsequently re-named as U Family in May 2008 and expanded its work to support working families by advocating pro-family practices at the community and workplaces. With its current outreach base of more than 200,000 members, U Family aims to develop a workforce with high women employment rate supported by strong and happy families.
