Southampton Sling Meet is three years old! November 8, 2011
Posted by admin in : Uncategorized , comments closedOur December 2011 meet marks our third birthday. At our first meet in 2008, we had just one Mum and baby turn up and just the one sling hire. Since then, our meets have grown beyond all recognition, with us now regularly welcoming around 40 families to each of our meets and hiring out more than 25 slings at most meets. Since we started, new Sling Meets have also been set up on the Isle of Wight, in the New Forest and in Fareham, reflecting the growing number of babywearers in our local area. As we mark our third birthday, we would like to thank everyone who has supported Southampton Sling Meet since its launch and look forward to celebrating our birthday by sharing some cake with all those who can make our ‘birthday’ meet on December 5th. See you there!
