A new programme to provide Children’s Centre services for young children and their families across Poole has started in Bearwood. At Bearwood Primary & Nursery School “Lets Play Together” groups are now provided each week and new speech and language therapy sessions are also on offer. On 9th January the Children’s Centre team will be starting “Wiggle Bugs” play and activity sessions for pre-school children aged 18 months to 4 years at Bearwood Community Centre every Wednesday from 10.45am to 12.45pm. Call the Health Visiting Team on 01202 577849 for information or to book a place.

Annette Brooke MP, Liberal Democrat Spokesperson for Children, Young People and Families, welcomed this saying: “These new services are of great benefit to local children in Bearwood and it is even better that they are being provided on their doorstep”.
