Families
As part of our family support services we run a number of drop in sessions for the whole family. These are open to anyone in the community to come along; have fun, relax and meet other families. All our sessions are inclusive for disabled people and their families.
These drop in sessions are a great way to find out more about Markfield, enjoy our fantastic facilities and relax with friends. There is no need to book, just turn up.
Thursday Under 5s stay and play
Our Under 5s stay and play sessions run from 12– 2.30pm on Thursdays during a 12 week term. Sessions are inclusive for both disabled and non-disabled children, and are creative, educational and fun, including: messy play, singing and signing, yoga, lots of toys and activities, large soft play room and garden.
£3 suggested donation per family.
