Jump Around Pre-School Classes Come along and join us in our brand new fun-filled preschool classes, taking place at Braeport Centre, Dunblane on Thursday mornings. There will be two classes available, with both looking to build children’s physical wellbeing, increase their confidence, and develop key core areas. The classes will be delivered in a fun and energetic manner, using a wide range of child-friendly equipment such as balls, fluff balls, quoits, hoops and more!
Why try buggy walks? Parents have said: ‘I feel so much better after the fresh air and adult conversation.’

Volunteer Kay sums it all up: ‘It can be a struggle as a first-time mum. I enjoy leading walks to help bring mums together to support each other and make lifelong friendships. It’s lovely to see their babies grow and develop, and of course we all get some exercise’
Weekly walks are FREE, run throughout Stirling and led by qualified walk leaders. Walks finish at a venue where you can stop for a cuppa.
No need to pre book, just come along.
