Playgroup Support There are approximately 80 Parent and Toddler Groups in Tower Hamlets. This is a far larger number than in many neighbouring boroughs. Because these groups are run by volunteers and usually meet only once or twice a week, they appreciate visits from our outreach workers to give advice and regular support. Without this, if a key volunteer leaves, the groups frequently collapse.
Small GrantsWe have had a small grants budget from LBTH previously, which has enabled us to give up to 70 grants of £270 to groups who attend and order supplies through our Information and Resource Day.FundraisingWe provide information on grants available for resources. We have been instrumental in helping groups to obtain small grants from such bodies as Children in Need and in advising on writing letters to request small grants from the business community.Equipment LoanWe have a wide selection of equipment for loan for Parent and Toddler Groups. If you require any, please contact the office. We often have funds for long-term loans of “Start-Up” equipment for new group.
