Welcome to Taunton and District NCT

A fun, active branch run for and by local parents.

Don't Miss Our Next Speed Bumps Evening! 

On Wednesday 29th September at Cafe Expresso, 38 High Street, Taunton

These evening events are designed for anyone who is unable to attend the branch Antenatal classes, but wants to meet some “bumps” in their local area.  We plan to have short talks given by our specialist workers (Antenatal & Postnatal teachers and Breastfeeding Counsellors), with the chance to ask lots of questions.   Refreshments will be provided during the evening as part of the pre-booked ticket.  Hopefully, you will get to make some new “bump” friends, as well as learning some helpful information during the evening.
