Park Up and Play is our NEW outdoor play group for parents and children. Come and meet other local families who are learning to live and thrive with Spina Bifida and/or Hydrocephalus. We gather every week in a park around Sheffield and the surrounding area, to chat, catch up, share stories and advice and get a breath of fresh air together.
We’re a friendly bunch and love to welcome new faces. We’ll go to a different park each week, depending on the requests of the group. This might be the group for you if you struggle to get to North Sheffield for our other events, because the location will vary. Feel free to contact Nina (Events Coordinator) on 07752665411 for more information or to suggest a place to meet.
