Southern Links Children’s Centre is situated in Stockwood and is surrounded by a large expanse of green space. In particular there is a lovely forest area which is well used by the setting and childminders. The centre team runs a lot of different groups, all free, for families with babies and young children under the age of 5. There is a big focus on making links with the local community.

The introduction of these new raised beds in the allotment area will allow the children and members of the community to grow their own vegetables. The garden around it provides a peaceful place to relax and engage in conversation.
