Highbury Roundhouse was set up in 1974 to meet the needs of the young people in the area. Since then it has grown and developed into a thriving community centre, which provides facilities for people of all ages and backgrounds.

Your local Children's Centre provides childcare and early education for your children from when they are babies until they start school. Children's Centres also support networks for local childminders. You can access family support, advice and parenting classes. There are plenty of activities and 'stay and play' sessions. A toy library and accident prevention loan scheme is located in the centre and families may borrow quality educational toys and baby and child safety equipment.
