North Belfast childcare specialists Wee Chicks are celebrating 10 years serving the local community by inviting the community together for a fun-packed afternoon at their Autumn Craft & Wellbeing Fair.<\/span><\/p>\n

The creche and afterschool care social enterprise and charity moved on to the site of Currie Primary at the bottom of the Limestone Road earlier this year.<\/span><\/p>\n

And founder Kelly Molloy is keen to encourage families in the local community to pop in to see the facilities and meet their neighbours.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 10th birthday celebrations will take place at the back of Currie Primary on October 29th from 4pm, for what Kelly and the team say will be an afternoon of laughter, fun and games.<\/span><\/p>\n

Building on the Wee Chicks ethos of promoting and encouraging a positive mindset and community spirit, childcare expert Kelly said the event isn\u2019t just celebrating the business\u2019 success, but also the children and parents who have contributed to the success over the years.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur craft and wellbeing fair is about a community coming together to enjoy the fun, creativity and positivity of our children, parents and families,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere will be local craft stalls showcasing handmade goods and creative businesses.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

As well as that, in keeping with the Wee Chicks ethos, there will be a wellbeing zone with mindfulness demos, holistic therapies, and parent wellbeing resources.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe that we can all work together to support our children and families,\u201d said Kelly. \u201cBringing together this birthday celebration is about giving back to the community.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

There will also be community information from local support groups, as well as children\u2019s activities such as face painting, crafts and interactive play, as well as a community ballot.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone from the community right across North Belfast is welcome to join us. It will be a great opportunity to see the Wee Chicks facilities at the back of Currie Primary School.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, we\u2019ll also have cake to celebrate 10 years with the North Belfast community,\u201d said Kelly.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a milestone for our social enterprise. I hope everyone can come together to celebrate our commitment to positive support for children and families, and a chance to meet and chat to the Wee Chicks team.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Wee Chicks birthday celebration starts at 4pm on October 29 at Currie Primary School, Limestone Road, Belfast.<\/span><\/p>\n
