Support for children

Centre 56 is unique for so many reasons. But the main one is that, alongside our support for families in crisis, we provide an Ofsted accredited nursery and after school / school holiday childcare provision.

Our highly experienced and qualified staff are trained to support families and children who have been affected by domestic abuse or a crisis situation. We provide a safe and secure environment that helps children flourish.
