Expecting a baby? New to parenthood? New to the Island? We’re here to help so join us from bump to baby and beyond. The branch is friendly and informal and run by local parents. We offer support, information and friendship to parents and parents-to-be and if you don't know many other parents with young children, our groups and events are the perfect place to make friends, build up a support network and share the joys / woes of parenthood!

All our events are open to members and non-members of the charity and by contacting us you will find out about:

• Support networks for parents - our branch can offer you support before, during and after your baby arrives. Whether or not you attend NCT antenatal or postnatal courses in your area, there'll be NCT volunteers who offer you opportunities to meet up and make friends and share experiences at coffee mornings, bumps and babies sessions and other support groups.
• NCT Nearly New Sale - the cost of kitting out your baby or toddler can run into thousands. Our Gold Standard NCT Nearly New Sales are the perfect solution - top-quality baby and children's clothes and equipment at bargain prices straight from their loving owners.
• NCT volunteering opportunities - have fun helping with our NCT branch activities, use your skills to support local parents and meet new people from around the Island
• Local NCT social and fundraising events - giving you the chance to meet other parents while supporting your local branch and the wider NCT.

Branches are the local FACE of NCT - "Fun, Accessible, Caring and Encouraging" - they aim to reflect these values in their local community, so do join in!
