Wardington Waddlers – Off to a great start!

The Wardington Waddlers toddler group got off to an excellent start on Thursday, with a fantastic turnout from both Wardington and surrounding villages. We hope everyone enjoyed it and will join us again next week. Please help spread the word as we need all of your support to keep running. We need volunteers to help with setting up/putting away and teas/coffees. It would be on a rota so not every week! If you can help, please let us know. We are also looking for kind donations of unwanted toys (especially some ride-on toys) in good condition. If you are able to help, then please email Hannah or Gemma.
