Health and children's development

We work closely with local health visitors, nutritionists, speech and language therapists and other professionals so that we can help you with any concerns you have about your own, or your child’s health and development. We can signpost you to Baby Massage courses in the local area. The nutritionist leads our monthly Cooking Club.

We have weekly clinics led by the Health Visiting team at our Children's Centre: weaning sessions, Milk Spot (breastfeeding support), baby weighing . You can make an appointment with Liz or Sam to see the team around any concerns, or to have your child's developmental checks done. 

We also run regular First Aid training sessions. These are led by the British Red Cross, and are targeted to parents of babies and toddlers. There is a charge for these sessions, concessions are available. Please contact Karin, at The Weir Link for further details.

​On 30th March we held a celebration event for all participants in the Alexander Rose voucher scheme. This was attended by the families involved and some of the trustees from the Alexander Rose Charity. These vouchers enable families to eat more healthily by providing them with access to fresh fruit and vegetables. At this event everyone came together to share success stories over a healthy lunch. Thank you to all involved.
