I would be interested in coming to this i don't have many friends with children so would be nice to meet other people with or due to have children do we need to book a place or just turn up on the day? I live close to norfolk park but where is the centre in the park is there only the one centre there?

Hi

Just turn up on the day but book creche places, if require, in advance on the number already given.

You can get to the Centre in the Park:

•By Tram - the nearest tram stop is Arbourthorne Road. There is a five minute walk from the tram stop to the Centre in the Park.
•By Bus - the number 41 passes the Granville Road entrance to the park. Other buses come nearer to the Centre in the Park, but are not as regular.
•By Car - the Centre in the Park has its own dedicated car park, which is close to the building. The car park is located off Guildford Avenue entrance. The car park and the Centre are monitored by CCTV.

I didn't realise you wanted me to respond to your message as you asked if any forum members were going to the event.

Some of the car park is shaded but I can't guarantee you will get a place in a shaded area. Parking is free and there is plenty of it on-site and on the road nearby.
