Welcome to the Summer Term 2015 Programme for getset Services in South Somerset. Here you can find details of the groups we run, community-run groups, events and health groups. Unless otherwise stated, groups are for parents and carers with children aged 0-5 years. We hope you will find something of interest for you and your family in this Programme. Please see back page for the Addresses of our Children s Centres. Our getset service groups are run by the Family Support Team and sometimes by volunteers. The getset service groups take place across South Somerset at venues including Children s Centres, Community Centres, Libraries, Village Halls and Schools. Ask a member of the getset service team for more information. Community groups are run by other providers and include toddler groups, community-run information & advice groups, volunteer-led and self-led groups, job clubs and baby cafés. Always contact the providers of these groups before you leave home, to make sure that the group is running. Please note these groups are not part of the getset service. V4 March 2015
Health groups are run by Health professionals, such as Health Visitors, Midwives or Community Nursery Nurses. Members of the getset Family Support Team may also attend these groups to offer help and advice to parents. Health groups are free of charge.
