How you can
support us
There are lots of different ways that you as a Stepping Stones family, member of the community or local business can support our nursery and pre-school.
​
As a not-for-profit organisation we rely on the kind donations and fundraising activities of our volunteers to purchase additional equipment and supplies for nursery. We believe these added extras help us to create a unique learning environment for our children, where they can learn to express themselves and build confidence through play.
Join the committee
As a not-for-profit organisation, Stepping Stones works in partnership with parents and volunteers, who collaborate on the non-operational decisions in particular fundraising activities. The Trustees of the CIO and Management work together to run and manage the setting. Please get in touch for more information.
Support as a parent
Help run an event
We run regular events throughout the year, all of which couldn't take place without our team of amazing volunteers. If you have the time to run or help out at one of our events, or have an idea for an event, we'd love to hear from you.
Share your skills
At Stepping Stones, we like to expose our children to as many experiences as possible. We believe everybody has a story to tell, a skill to teach, and we'd love you to share yours with our children. We welcome you to come and chat with us for more information.
We are delighted to partner with easyfundraising to turn your daily shopping into donations towards our organisation!
