Hi all, Does anyone know of a local women's or family shelter that might want donated used toys for Christmas? Doesn't need to be a shelter but any organisation that serves families in need or refugees; basically anyone who might appreciate good quality used toys. Would appreciate any suggestions! Many thanks

Hi there, Just wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a local solicitor to handle our will? Looking for someone who isn't crazy expensive but good and nice to deal with. Many thanks

Hi there, I wonder if anyone might have any good ideas of places that I could donate some baby and kids items? Some of it is in excellent condition and some more used, but still with plenty of life left in it. A mixture of clothes, toys and other practical items. I'm really struggling to find somewhere (probably due to the time of year I'm sure. I've tried women's refuges I can find and my local community centre. Does anybody know of any refugee collections or similar happening at the moment? I really don't want to throw it away as it's nice stuff, but I need to get it out of my very small flat! Any ideas gratefully received. Many thanks

Does anyone have any good suggestions/recommendations for somewhere to hold a birthday party for my son who is turning 4 in July? We've done the Peckham Playroom before which was great. Any reasonably priced suggestions would be very welcome! Many thanks

This is great. Thank you. Look forward to meeting people. :)

Hi Amy, Thank you. I've found the message and joined the mailing list! Really looking forward to meeting some of the other parents and new starters. Very best, Rhiannon

Hi there, My son is due to start reception at Bessemer this September but unfortunately we don't know anyone else who will be. I just wanted to see if anyone here has a child starting this year who might want to meet up a few times over the summer. I know there's a welcome picnic in June and the summer fair, but thinking it couldn't hurt to do some playing before then! It's such a large school and I'd really like it if he knew a couple of kids before going. He's been in the same nursery since he was one so its going to be a huge change. Thank you!

Hi there, I just came on to post the same question. Did you manage to find any small local firework displays by any chance? Thanks!

Hello everyone, I tried to join the group a few weeks ago when I went on mat leave but didn't manage to make a meet up before my little boy arrived! Now getting the hang of things (slowly) so would love to meet some other mums and babies in the area! Are there any plans to meet this week? Rhiannon

Hi everyone, Finally on maternity leave which is fab. Would be great to know when the next meet up is as I'd love to get to know on other soon-to-be mums in the area! Many thanks, Rhiannon

Hi everyone, Apologies for the late reply; was hoping to escape work last week but now stuck until Friday. :( Sorry I missed yesterday, my friends held a baby shower for me. Would love to join the next one - what date would that be? Rhiannon

Hi everyone, I've just found the forum and this thread and would love to join the group. I'm due July 4th and have been worrying about how to meet people! Will be on maternity leave from the week after next so it would be great to meet up if anyone's interested? Rhiannon x
