Gilfillan Parent and Toddlers Group

Charity registered in Scotland SC014540

A member of the church started a parent and toddlers group some years ago. When they left I decided to start it up again. When we went into lockdown I had several children coming but they are now at school. I started the group several weeks ago and am just building my numbers up. This week I had some of the Ukrainian ladies come with there children. The poor families were stuck in a hotel with nothing for the children to do. I had 12 children this week and I know the word will get around and the numbers will increase. I am on my own and even though the mums are there feel that I need some others to play with the children and give these mums a break. I don’t charge there is a tin for anyone who wants put in it. Because I open at 12 till 3 I am providing soup and yogurts for anyone who wants it. Volunteers would get too. There is also tea/coffee and biscuits and juice and fruit for the children.
