Although every effort is made to keep this list up to date, dates may have to be changed or cancelled at short notice.
No appointments are necessary but to save disappointment, callers are asked to telephone the Parent Partnership Help-line (0161 287 8555) or the Family Information Service (0800 731 1518) in the week before the date of the drop-in session, to check for any unpublished changes or cancellations to Drop-In Session dates.
