What the parents say…
What would we do without Dragon Hall Drop in – essential for the little ones of the area, space, friendly staff and lovely toys. Thank You!
This is a great place to come to bring the little ones to the drop in, lots of toys, big space to run around, nice kids to play with, lots of fun activities for themto do. We adults love it too, meeting other people, having a coffee and biscuits, interacting and making friends. It is fantastic!

“Lovely spacious and friendly drop in play group. I spent a lot of time searching the web trying to find somewhere to meet with a friend from the other side of London with our two toddlers. Places like this in central London seem few and far between. Great resources for local people and visitors alike.” Rachel
“Keep Dragon Hall open – children need this great space to play and learn. Staff are welcoming, children are stimulated and parents get to relax a little!”
“Drop in sessions like this excellent one are invaluable to new mothers without family nearby and they definately stop mums going to their GP with post natal depression. Please, please keep this group going”
“We love it here and wouldn’t go anywhere else on Fridays”
