The Meadows Children and Family Wing

Registered charity number: 1075129
The Meadows Children and Family Wing has been operating since 1997. Following a consultation with local families and service providers, a programme of services was born to meet the identified needs of the local community and to fill the gaps in current provision. Our work focuses on working alongside local families and women providing family support and ‘Life After abuse’ support and activities. The Meadows Community Centre has a separate Youth Wing and the main building offers a whole host of services to the community from exercise to computer classes. Altogether we provide a Centre with a wealth of services and activities for the whole community. Our work has continued, developed, and grown to meet the needs of our local community, in line and in partnership with them.
