Meet the amazing team at Buggies & Brews and give their page a follow...

Who are they ?

A group of volunteer mums - Emma, Becky, Cerys, Lucie, Aletia and Laura plus our own little ones in tow 🥰

We meet every Friday at Rosliston Forestry Centre come rain or shine 🌦️ at 10am for a buggy walk.

Babies, toddlers and little ones of all ages and stages can come along ❤️

We walk and chat for 50 mins or so. Afterwards, we gather for a catch-up, a cuppa and a chance for the toddlers to run around and play 🛝

And most importantly come as you are! Messy hair, baby sick on your shoulder, mismatched socks, running on very little sleep… we’ve all been there! 😂 There’s no pressure, no judgement and no need to have it all together.

So if you’ve been following for a while but haven’t made it along yet, consider this your invitation! We’d love to see you and your little ones on Friday. 🥰🌳
