About
Dorset Council Family Hubs brings together local support for children and families across Dorset. The programme covers baby groups, toddler music, messy play and library sessions, with Find a Family Hub giving parents the main route into timetables and locations.
The example listed activities run from birth to age 5 and include sessions at Swanage, Sherborne and Dorchester. A Dorchester Family Hub library session shows how the network mixes venue, age band and weekday or weekend timing.
Free and donation-based sessions sit side by side, so parents can choose by age, venue and format rather than by one fixed model. That makes the network easy to compare for newborn groups, toddler sessions and early preschool activities.
