Coffee and play for Mums, Dads, Carers and Babies (bumps, newborns and babies up until walking). We meet in the Large Hall at St Paul's Church from 10 - 11.30am on Thursdays in term time. However, come when you are ready - we know life is unpredictable with a new born! We serve legendary homemade baked goods. We look forward to seeing you.

On Thursday mornings during term time we run a toddler group in the Octagon room for pre-school children aged 18 months and over. This is accessed through the church or through the office/tower door. There are lots of different toys to play with and in the warmer months we have access to a secure outside area (weather permitting). Refreshments including tea, coffee, and biscuits are included. At the end of the session 10 minutes is spent having a story and singing. It is a great chance to let your toddler have a play whilst you get to know some other parents/carers. Thursday 9.30am - 11.00am (during term time) and there is a suggested £2 donation per family per session.

Fridays in term time at 09:30am in church: for babies and toddlers and their parents or carers. Friendly and informal; an hour to play and chat, ending with a story and some songs. Fresh filter coffee and tea, as well as snacks for toddlers. No need to book and free entry (donations welcome).
