In the best attended meeting thus far of the Rotary
year, club members learnt of the tremendous successful and the vast range of
services provided to Hucknall residents by SureStart since commencing work in
the community six years ago.
Michelle Squires and Vikki McCormick, both of
SureStart Children’s Centre, enthralled and amazed members as they described
the range of services provided.
Virtually every service imaginable that could help and improve family
life can be accessed through the Children’s Centre. If it’s not an activity run by SureStart, the
likelihood is that they could signpost to meet the need. And such services are not confined to the
Children Centre building, but community and support workers offer a supportive
and informal service suitable to the individual.
When asked, Michelle and Vikki responded that the
main challenges facing the Hucknall community were Road Safety, Promoting,
encourage and supporting parents to Breastfeed and Smoking Cessation.
