NCT

The NCT hold regular sessions here in the Cottage on Thursday evenings.
Statement from the NCT:
The courses are not able to take place due to rising Covid-19 infection rates and official guidance for pregnant women, online is the only way the NCT can safely and practically deliver local, fully interactive and inclusive courses – a decision supported by the Royal College of Midwives.
We know how much you value our in-person courses so we're keeping our options open for courses from February 2021 onwards. Currently you can still book these as in-person classes but we'll only bring people back together in venues once it is safe to do so. We'll never put you, your baby or your family at risk.
With over 60 years' experience supporting new mums and dads, you can rely on NCT's range of fun, informative and social antenatal classes and postnatal courses to support you through pregnancy, birth and your new life as a parent.
