This organisation is designed to support families through a range of groups and activities

The Baby Group offers a relaxed and friendly environment. A place where new parents can come together and share their experiences, chat over coffee or just enjoy a change of scenery.

We are located in the Mills room on the first floor where you will find us equiped for newborn babies through to toddlers - including soft play and many other developmentally appropriate toys.

Workshop and guest speakers can be arranged during the group. We are here to serve your needs so simply let us know what would be beneficial.
