COTN Buds is a baby, parent and toddler group that meets weekly. It provides a craft room, an area for babies including lots of soft toys, another seperate room for the older toddlers. Healthy snacks are provided. All sessions finish with group story time and songs. This group is very well attended with other 30 toddlers each week. We are looking to expand and further funding support is therefore required. A £1 charge is paid per session to help towards costs of snacks, drinks for parents, guardians and carers. Due it being held in a deprived area some parents have difficulty in funding the £1 entry fee. We also organise social family coach trips. The project costs approximately £10k per annum for fund.
