Funding helps West Barns Playgroup to continue free baby club

West Barns Playgroup has been providing a safe, welcoming space for families to socialise and receive helpful advice for 3 years. With rising inflation and the cost-of-living crisis, their focus now is to ensure that they are able to cover the running costs whilst also guaranteeing that entry fees for the sessions remain affordable.

With regular attendees from West Barns, Dunbar, Innerwick, and East Linton, the playgroups are run by volunteers and provide a much needed space for the young children and also for their parents or carers. The toddler group costs £3 for the first child then £1 for each sibling per session, which includes tea/coffee and a healthy snack for the children. Community Windpower (CWL), through BeGreen Dunbar, are delighted to provide £750 in funding support for this initiative, which will help to cover some of the costs to hire the hall where the baby group takes place. The free baby club for babies under 12 months gives new mums an opportunity to socialise, relax, and make new friends.

Anouska Woods, Community Coordinator at BeGreen Dunbar, said: “The amazing volunteers at West Barns Playgroup provide a much-needed service for our communities, which not only supports the development and wellbeing of the children but also that of the parents and carers too. We supported this group during Covid when they had just started, and we are pleased that we can help keep them going now too.”
