The Herts North branch of the NCT covers the Stevenage, Hitchin, Letchworth and Baldock areas. We are a very active and friendly branch with over 350 members.  All of our local services are run by volunteers, many of whom have become involved after being helped by the NCT themselves.

We aim to provide a mixture of events and activities for both children and parents. We run antenatal classes, provide postnatal and breastfeeding support via local individuals and groups, and organise fundraising events including our very popular Nearly New Sales.

We also organise regular informal get-togethers for parents and children in members' homes: ”Bumps & Babes” for expectant mothers and those with pre-walking babies, and “Open Houses” for toddlers and pre-schoolers.

If you are expecting a baby or have young children and would like to get to know other families in the area, then contact us by phoning 07020 973 636 or emailing nct_hertsnorth@hotmail.com. We look forward to meeting you.

You don't have to be an NCT member to go along to NCT events - our services, activities and membership are open to everyone. However, if you find the NCT helpful, and want to help it continue to reach other parents, please consider becoming a member.

What is the NCT?

The National Childbirth Trust (NCT) is the largest and best known childbirth and parenting charity in Europe, run by parents for parents. We offer information and support, campaign to improve maternity care and ensure better services and facilities for new parents, and aim to give every parent the opportunity to make informed choices. You can read about the history of the NCT and find out more about the charity on the national website at http://www.nct.org.uk.

The NCT wants all parents to have an experience of pregnancy, birth and early parenthood that enriches their lives and gives them confidence in being a parent.
