The MDC Neighbourhood’s “Mums’ Hub” is designed to be an integrated service across primary, community and third sector providers, delivering proactive care to vulnerable young families in the MDC Neighbourhood.

Where is it?

Its location is at  St Edward's Church , St Keverne Rd, Mottingham, SE9 4AQ. It was chosen for its relatively central location and ease of access within the PCN and availability of creche facilities.

When is it?

 Occurring every second Wednesday of the month between 10 am to 1 pm. Refreshments and lunch are provided.
