The coffees are a chance to introduce new parents, parents with older babies and second time parents to each other within the area. The coffees are hosted by branch volunteers. Our coffees are open to all, including non-members, so if you are new to the area, or just keen to meet some other local parents, please get in touch. The dates of forthcoming coffees can be found on our website. Our hosts would appreciate a RSVP so they have an idea of numbers, please email the host and add the date/venue as the subject for the date which you wish to attend.

A great way to hone your baby's social skills from an early age - and resurrect your own!
