CHILDREN'S CENTRE SUMMER PUSH BOOSTS DEMAND

More families are visiting a east London children's centre after it put on a range of summer activities.

Overland Children's Centre in Bow, offered music workshops, play sessions, story and rhyme, baby yoga, baby massage and a healthy cooking course for parents and their children. It also had a visit from a mobile farm, which attracted local families to the centre after they saw the animals from their homes.
Centre manager Paula Holt said: "It's been really good, we have had parents coming into the centre that haven't previously visited."
