We are run by Action for Children, one of the countries leading childcare charities, who work in partnership with Dorset Sure Start and other agencies to provide services to families in the local community.

The centre is open Monday to Thursday 8.30am-5pm and Friday 8.30am-4.30pm. Please note that times may vary according to local need. We are open throughout the year including school holidays, but are closed on bank holidays. There are no charges for our services, with the exception of Baby Massage. However a 50p donation per family is welcomed.

Location and area covered

We cover Weymouth town and surrounds. We are based at the Mulberry (formerly the arts centre), Commercial Road Weymouth (opposite the marina public car park).

We are linked to the Bincombe Valley, Westham and Outlooks Children's Centres and work very closely together as part of a cluster.

Parking

There is no parking on site but the centre is located opposite the marina car park and not far from the Debenhams' multi storey car park.
