Our
centre offers a small, safe and stimulating environment
in which both children and adults can discover more about
God, themselves and the world around them. In a recent letter
written by a children’s leader The Discovery Centre
was describes as "a super resource for young people,
their families and leaders, whether church, school or other
groups. It has a very welcoming and friendly feel to it,
as shown by how relaxed and at home the children felt right
from the start”.
