Open Houses

There is usually an Open House event most weeks somewhere within our region (currently predominantly along the coast between Rhuddlan and Llanfairfechan). A  member hosts a session and everyone is invited. There is an Online Calendar for these events and members volunteer to host sessions. It’s very informal, with coffee and possibly some cake and lots of chat for the adults and play for the small people. It’s a good way to make friends and can be a lifesaver. You can meet other parents with children of a range of ages, learn from their wisdom (and their mistakes) and get out of the house and have an adult conversation. All are welcome: bumps, babies, toddlers, children and parents.

For more information contact Leanne.  

Prams on the Prom

A gentle walk along the prom in Rhos-on-Sea, followed by coffee and cake (yes, there’s a theme developing). You don’t need a pram, all welcome, including dogs.

Meet every Tuesday at 10am by the clock next to the Tourist Info Centre on Rhos prom or at the Interchange Centre in Old Colwyn - please check our Facebook page or branch emails the day before. If you can't make the walk, then feel free to meet the group on their return trip by the clock at 11! Deanna is the main contact for the prom walk.

Some NCT members with older toddlers and children are starting to meet at the softplay session in Llandudno Junction Leisure centre at 10.30 each Tuesday as an alternative to the walk. Cost is £1.65 per child with a Conwy Ffit card. There is also a meet-up at the Hub in Llandudno every week - you can check all the upcoming social dates in the Online Calendar!

Pub Night
