Playconnect+ Playgroup offers a warm, welcoming environment where children aged 0–8 years with disabilities, autistic characteristics, developmental delays, or behavioural concerns can play freely and safely. No diagnosis is required, making it an accessible space for all families seeking support and connection.
Children will enjoy engaging activities designed to stimulate play, exploration, and social interaction, while parents and carers can connect with others facing similar experiences. This supportive community fosters friendships and a sense of belonging for both children and adults.
The playgroup runs weekly during school terms, providing a consistent and reliable opportunity for families to come together and share in the joys and challenges of raising children with additional needs.
This playgroup meets every Thursday from 10:00 to 12:00 at the Darlington Children's Centre. Sessions are free of charge and open to all families with children aged 0–8 years who have developmental or behavioural concerns.
