Re-opening plans

In line with government guidance on lifting Covid 19 restrictions we are starting to re-introduce our face-to-face groups and activities, as well as the re-opening of 21 Co.

We have already been able to bring some of our Speech & Language sessions back to Stainbeck and it was wonderful to see everyone!

Below are our provisional plans for some of our groups going forward.

  • 0-3s - Weekly in person sessions starting on 10th May, alternating between 0-18 months (10/4/21) and 18-36 months (17/4/21).
  • Speech and Language groups - Ruth groups are back in person! Lauren's groups to start in person from 8th May.
  • Swimming - Swimming sessions have restarted but booking is essential, see the events section regarding booking for the next session. 
  • 21 Co. - To reopen for takeaway only 9nd June (Staff vaccinations permitting). 

We can't wait to see everyone when it is safe to do so!
