WELCOME TO OUR sling library sessions
We are an inclusive organisation and we welcome all families including those who are adopting, single parents, disabled parents and children, all sexualities and communities. We use an accessible venue (details below) and our team are happy to work with you to accommodate any specific requirements. Babies and older siblings are welcome at all our events.
All sessions run on a prebooked basis, we cannot currently accept drop ins. We are run on a wholly voluntary basis. We ask for £5 per family to cover venue hire and refreshments. To hire slings we require a £50 cash or PayPal deposit. Fees and other details available here.
