Our vision

Our vision is a world in which parents are valued and supported to build a strong society, believing that a child’s early years significantly impact upon the future they help to shape.

Our charitable purpose

  • We offer information and support in pregnancy, birth and early parenthood.
  • We campaign to improve maternity care and ensure better services and facilities for new parents.
  • We aim to give every parent the chance to make informed choices.
  • We want to make sure that everyone has access to our services and activities.

Newbury & District NCT reaches everyone in West Berkshire from Hungerford and Lambourn in the west, to the borders of Reading in the east, the Downlands villages in the north, the Cleres in the south and everywhere in between.

Run by local parents, Newbury and District Branch offers support, information and friendship to new parents and parents-to-be.

Activities

We run a variety of activities on a local level to support new parents and parents-to-be.

We host a number of social groups designed to appeal to all age ranges up until school: Social Bumps (for pregnant couples), Bumps & Babes, Crawlers and Explorers and Cafe Bambino.

Over the summer months we run a successful "Feed & Change" tent at local events providing facilities to enable changing of babies nappies and a quiet area to feed where often no other facilities exist.
