FAMILY SPACE in Hesters Way

Cheltenham YMCA is delighted to announce that it has recently entered into partnership with Family Space in Hesters Way, Cheltenham.  The partnership sits perfectly with the YMCA ethos of supporting young people and their families in the community.

 

About Family Space:

Family life can be full of ups and downs, good days and not such good days.  Parents can often do with having places to go, people to be with and/or things to do with the children, as well as sometimes having space for themselves.  Family Space can help that to happen, enabling parents to spend time with their children, spend time with other parents and giving children time to play together.

 

Two of our main activities are:

 

1.       “Befrienders” which is available to parents of 0-5’s who would like individual help in and around the home, eg with the children, with the shopping or going out to places.  Befrienders also gives parents opportunity to engage in small parent groups while children are in a crèche or to join in with the parent/toddler “Stay and Play” sessions.

 

2.       Cheltenham Child Contact Centre offers a safe place where children can spend time with parents and other members of their family with whom they are no longer living.  The Centre is well resourced with toys and games for children of all ages to play with and enjoy.

 

Further information can be found on the Family Space website, or by contacting the Centre.
