Playtime National Conference 2025, Northern Ireland

Special offer of just £20 available until 19 October!

Next year we’ll explore how God can do mighty things through the ‘small’ that we offer.

It can sometimes feel like we only reach the families we meet each week, but this isn’t true.

Whatever the shape and size of your toddler group, when you sow into families you have a far-reaching impact on whole communities.

It’s not just toddlers who are small but mighty – your group is too!

So whether you're the one who brings the tasty snacks or the one who shows up with a smile and a listening ear, you’ll be encouraged that your efforts are invaluable and are making a mighty difference.
