It’s great to see more fathers and male carers (Uncles and Grandfathers) attending our activities. We’ve created a new page on this website to keep them up to date with what’s happening. See Dads R Us page.
Parents meeting (October 2009)
We are keen to get local families more involved in the running of the Children’s Centre. In October 2009, we were pleased to hold an open meeting where parents shared their experience of attending the Centre. Concerns about over crowding and supporting children during activities were discussed plus ideas for making more local families aware of our services. Click here to download the full notes of the meeting. The next meeting will be held in February please look out for the date or ask a member of staff.
