UK campaign: Wyeth's SMA Baby Know-How roadshow events cancelled - keep sending emails
Baby Milk Action learned that Wyeth was planning to start the SMA Baby Know-How roadshow in the UK on 14 June.
Wyeth calls it the 'London Blitz', a series of events at shopping centres to promote SMA formula and sign pregnant women and mothers up to its mailing list.
We began contacting those involved, alerted Trading Standards and launched the Stop Wyeth campaign:

The first two events have since been cancelled.
Thanks to your help, Wyeth's 'London Blitz' has still not got off the ground. It is now scheduled to begin on 28 June.
Please take a moment to email the shopping centres still scheduled to hold Wyeth's SMA promotions. See:

We campaign for companies to respect the marketing rules. Their promotions mislead. Mothers who use formula end up funding them through more expensive products.
We are working to protect and promote the right of all mothers to receive accurate, independent information on baby care, however they feed their babies.
Help us to Stop Wyeth's self-serving marketing activities:
