Celebrating the Berin Centre and community engagement in Berinsfield

That this House recognises the outstanding work of The Berin Centre in Berinsfield in supporting families with early years development; commends the Centre’s community led approach, including its delivery of the Growing Minds People Project and its partnership with Home Start Oxford, which together provide vital support, guidance and connection for local parents and carers; notes the important role of The Burrow Community Café, a warm and welcoming eco building offering affordable food, social connection and an inclusive community space; acknowledges the significant community effort involved in developing the café, including close collaboration with local residents and partners to create a modern, accessible and much needed resource; celebrates the positive impact both the café and the wider centre have on community cohesion, wellbeing and opportunities for families; and pays tribute to the dedication of staff, volunteers and supporters who help make the Berin Centre and the Burrow Community Café a thriving hub at the heart of Berinsfield.
