Being a parent/caregiver can feel a little lonely sometimes – especially if your partner works away, you’re
new to the area or it’s your first child. Lonely mums and dads club is a relaxed, friendly and inclusive
group where everyone is in the same boat – navigating the ups and downs of parenthood. It’s a safe,
supportive space to meet other parents, share experiences and build new friendships.
 
Breastfeeding peer support is also available for anyone who’d like it.
 
All babies and toddlers are welcome – we just ask parents to keep a close eye on their little explorers to
help keep our tiniest visitors safe.
 
Come as you are – tired, unsure, curious, or just in need of a chat.
