We have a date and venue for our first meet!

1-3pm, Thursday 4th December in the Cypress Room at St Paul’s Church, Oak Road, Bursledon, SO31 8DT.

There will be a range of slings for you to try out, along with friendly advice on how to use the slings. You will also be able to hire the slings from the library between this meet and the next one, for a charge of just £2 (although we do also require a deposit to cover the cost of the sling in case of damage or non-return). Check out what we have in the library and the deposit required for hire by clicking here.

We have also confirmed the dates for the next two meets, so the dates you need for your diary are Monday 5th January and Thursday 5th February, time and venue as before. We plan to meet in the first week of each month, alternating between Mondays and Thursdays so that those parents who have returned to work will have more chance of being able to make one of the meets. We look forward to seeing you on the 4th!

The Southampton Sling Library is growing rapidly at the moment – see what we’ve got so far by clicking on the link. We are also gathering reviews on slings so that you can see what other parents make of them. If you have experience of using any of the slings, please add your opinions to the reviews – the more points of view we have, the better! If you would like to review a sling which is not yet on the list, please email us with the details of the sling you wish to review.

We are currently printing promotional material for the Sling Meet and investigating venues and dates. We hope to have our first meet before Christmas, so watch this space!

We will shortly be setting up a mailing list which you can join to keep up to date with Sling Meet news. Please check back soon and sign up to receive details for Sling Meets and any other special offers that manufacturers let us know about.

Welcome to Southampton Sling Meet. We are currently building up our sling library thanks to some very generous donations from sling manufacturers. We will soon be announcing our first Sling Meet date and building up this site to reflect what we have in the library and what we are all about…. Watch this space!!
