There are currently sixteen operational children’s centres in Plymouth, offering a range of activities, childcare, health support, training and employment support. Activities are planned generally for parents and children under five years.

It is always worth checking out your local children’s centre for further activities in your area. They are great places to meet up with other parents and a good source of local information, support and advice.
