Call for volunteers 🙏
The playgroup has been operating for about 40 years at the Community Hall behind St Tims Church on Slinn Street Crookes . Its a large hall and we have a garden with a big sandpit and a mud kitchen. We have lots of play resources. We are able to accommodate more children and parents, but the two people who are currently running it have been involved for over 30 years, and we are getting old!
We need 2 extra volunteers per session to help put out toys at the beginning and to tidy away at the end .
We are currently open between 9.15 and 11.15 every Friday and
often parents drop older children at school and then just come along with their younger ones however , small adjustments could be made to these times. If a few people get involved, the tasks could be shared, and volunteers would not be charged for the session .
Unfortunately if we can't find some extra help , we are likely to have to close altogether
Have a think and see if it's something you could get involved in, and be a happy helper!
Please share. Thanks 🙂

There's a fab new kitchen area in our outdoor space along with the usual pond, sand pit, sensory garden and water play areas. We think it's looking very smart, what do you think?
Please spread the word about our wonderful and inclusive, indoor and outdoor playgroup, we'd love to see some new faces 💛
