Since the late 1970s midwives and others in the UK have held strong, negative views of Nestlé, based on reports that they were causing the deaths of many babies in third world countries. A boycott on their products started in Minneapolis in 1977 and spread internationally. However, despite its formal end in the USA in 1984, and further rejection in 1989, it continues to this day in the UK. A group of midwives, with various backgrounds, embarked on a fact-finding visit to Nestlé in 2005. Along with some background information, the views of this group are encapsulated in this article.
