On Monday, June 17th, we opened the North Locality Family Hub in Marks Gate. This is the second of our three hubs to open.
Nausicaa Konstantinidis, who is 4 years old, officially opened the hub with help from Elaine Allegretti, our Director for Children’s Services.
Katie O’Neil, a parent, and Aysha Meah, a local volunteer, spoke about their positive experiences with the hub. Many local families attended, enjoying activities like a children’s entertainer and face painting. Families also joined ‘PEEP’ sessions, which help with learning at home.
The ‘PEEP’ sessions happen every Wednesday from 1:30 to 2:30 pm at the North Locality Hub. We have many other services too, which you can find in our timetable.
A big thank you to the Literacy Trust and the Warren Junior School choir for making the day special.
