    October 16, 2025 (Thursday)
    9:30 am - 11:45 am

    St. Edmunds Family Hub, Victoria Park Rd, Torquay, TQ1 3QH, Devon

    Do you work with children aged 0-2 years or their families? Can you be a Building Babies’ Brains
    Champion in Torbay?
    This free series of workshops provides an opportunity to come together with like-minded people in the
    local community to learn the ‘user-friendly’ science behind what babies and toddlers need from us, to
    build strong and resilient brains. Our Building Babies’ Brains Champions tell us they gain more skills and confidence in passing on key messages to carers, and that they love the ethos that ‘it takes a village to grow a child’.
