LEISURE centre staff will be given new guidelines after a mother complained she was asked to leave a pool while breast-feeding her son.
The Post reported how Laura Whotton, 26, from Carrington, was told she could not feed the boy at the poolside in the John Carroll Leisure Centre in Radford because it was a public area.
A city council spokeswoman later told the Post that breast-feeding breached its strict rule of no food and drink by the poolside.
But now David Trimble, the council's portfolio holder for leisure, culture and customers, has said: "I think we need to change this.
"We shouldn't be treating mothers the same as someone who's eating and drinking.
