Star mum brings baby campaign to Bolton

A YOUNG mum who is appearing in a huge poster campaign across Bolton will be the star of this year's National Breastfeeding Week.

Abbi Rutter, of Arnside Grove, Breightmet, will be making an appearance outside the Bolton Town Hall on Tuesday to celebrate National Breastfeeding Week and hopes encourage other mums to take part.

The 20-year-old, along with her son, Zac, is one of the faces of the Be A Star campaign, which is run by Little Angels, promoting breastfeeding across Lancashire.

The campaign is believed to have reached more than half-a-million people.

Michelle Atkin, who is leading the campaign, said: "Be A Star aims to reach young mothers and to make breastfeeding fashionable."

At the Bolton event, Abbi will be on hand to discuss her experiences and talk through any concerns other young mothers may have.

She will be at the town hall at 11am.

if you're outside the shops, then how you logged on? must be blackberry.

And that sad scroat as you put it has problems. he has a house, he needs help, not you turning your nose up at him!

actually, he is one of the nicer people to hang around the shops. there are a lot of scroats who make it their business to cause trouble, intimidate people and especially pick on that fella you mentioned, but not all of us breightmet dwellers are like that billy. most of us have nice cars, jobs, homes and raise decent, respecatble kids. its just that as you only see whats outside the shops, you obviously don't notice!

billy bob has the mentality of a gnat. my husband, myself and our 2 children live in breightmet in a lovely hous, we both work and our children are doing well at school. yes there are a lot of people living in breightmet who need government support, so what, i think Deane, Daubhill and johnson Fold are worse than breightmet. values are what you make them.
