Some useful guides from the Early Years Alliance
NEW free Winter Toolkit

We've launched a new free Winter Toolkit for early years providers containing a series of useful resources to help you — and your families — to navigate the unique difficulties you may face in the winter months. 

This year’s toolkit includes a series of guides, posters and other resources not only providing information on topics such as infection control and prevention and winter safety guidance, but also advice on how to support families in poverty this winter. Download your FREE toolkit here: https://bit.ly/3e8vtAm 
​
The children's centres are running some sessions, in very small groups that are pre-booked. Information about these sessions is here. You can book by calling the contact information on the timetable. If you need any support you can complete a self-referral form via the Lambeth website or call the Effra number.
