THIS Mother’s Day, mums across Selby will be showered with love and spoilt rotten. But many mums – particularly those with very young children – often feel isolated and lonely.

NCT, the UK’s largest charity for parents, is here to celebrate and support mums – and dads – every day. Our Selby branch includes all areas with the postcodes of YO8, DN14, LS25, WF10 and WF11.

We run groups and events for parents-to-be and those with children. This includes a regular Bumps & Babies group which is supported by nappy care ointment Bepanthen, where parents can meet and share advice and experiences in a supportive environment.

These are often held in small groups and in the homes of other parents with young babies and once a month in the Children’s Centre at Whitley and Eggborough.

We would love to see more parents coming along to this and other events, so that we can help them feel special and supported all year round. Details can be found at nct.org.uk/branches/selby or you can contact us directly selbynct@gmail.com.
