Taking Time

Introducing a new type of drop-in session, every Tuesday from 10am – 2pm – Take Time Tuesdays

We’ve been loaned a temporary space by adult social care while we look for a more permanent home. Until we move, Tuesdays between 10am and 2pm will be a time where members are welcome to drop in and chill out in a safe space – come & read, get some quiet work done or just be. Some of the PCF team will be there working too.

No need to book! You can also  encourage friends who are Parent Carers to join the BPCF and come in too. There will be tea, coffee and possibly biscuits!

See our events page for full details.
