She means the National Childbirth Trust :)
No pharmacies hire out pumps in the UK - not as far as I know. They
used to, and maybe she would find one in London. But easiest way to
hire one from us is to call the NCT breastfeeding line 0300 330 0771
- we have list of agents. Or she can put 'breast pump hire' in the
search box at http://www.nct.org.uk/
The other thing is to put breast pump hire London into Google and she
will get loads of options.
(She'll get more hits with 'hire' than 'rent' - Brit English uses
'hire' for pumps) .
