Why the community needs us

Our service users will be supported by Newcastle Toy Library to access the sort of play opportunities, which their peers take for granted, i.e meeting other children, playing with appropriate and accessible toys, going to mainstream leisure venues. This will build confidence in accessing mainstream leisure venues as part of a group. Our members will be able to access our toy library of appropriate toys and specialist equipment, with the support of our experienced and fully qualified playworkers
