We are really saddened to hear the news that GL1 Leisure Centre and Oxstalls Sports Centre have closed as a result of Aspire Sports and Culture Trust ceasing trading. We would like to reassure our families and partners that we, Aspire Foundation, are in no way linked to Aspire Sports and Culture Trust and we continue to operate all of our services as normal.
Supporting young parents and families.
Young Parents’ Stay and Play group invites all parents and expectant parents aged 21 and under to join us for an opportunity to meet other parents and their children, to socialise, interact, play, learn and gain peer or professional support.
The group offers free soft play and the use of our sensory room along with weekly craft activities and baby play areas. We cater for all children aged five and under and also provide a snack and a drink.
The group will be welcomed by an experienced Family Support Worker who can offer advice and guidance or sign post to other services that may be able help to support young families.
Sessions run at Gardners Lane Children and Family Centre on Thursdays between 10:00 and 12:00
We may be able to support families with transport to the centre from outside of the Cheltenham area.
Please contact us to find out more.
