Cumbernauld Family Hub Brings Super-Sized Games Fun To The February School Holidays

Families in Cumbernauld can look forward to an afternoon of Giant Games during the upcoming February school holidays courtesy of Cumbernauld Family Hub, with parents and caregivers encouraged to book places early to ensure their children don’t miss out on the free fun.

Taking place on Tuesday 18 February 2025 from 1.00pm-2.30pm at Cornerstone House Centre (1 Esk Walk, Cumbernauld, G67 1BZ), this action-packed session offers an extraordinary play experience where children and families can enjoy larger-than-life versions of classic games.

Participants will have the chance to engage with oversized editions of favourites such as Snakes and Ladders, Connect Four, Ludo, skittles and much more, making for a truly memorable experience.

With unpredictable weather expected during the school break, this indoor event provides the perfect opportunity for families to come together and enjoy quality time in a warm and welcoming environment.

The Giant Games Session is completely free, but advance booking is required. To secure a place, contact Cornerstone House Centre via email at familyhub@cornerstone-house.org.uk or phone 01236 739220. Alternatively, you can book places by completing an online Contact Form.

All children in attendance must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the Session.

WHAT IS CUMBERNAULD FAMILY HUB AND HOW CAN YOUR FAMILY GET INVOLVED?

Established in 2017, Cumbernauld Family Hub was designed as an innovative community resource offering family support, skill development and activities that strengthen parent-child relationships.

The initiative, supported by The National Lottery Community Fund, aims to tackle inequalities, reduce poverty and create opportunities for families of all ages in Cumbernauld and surrounding areas. The Family Hub provides a range of free activities, including:

• School holiday programmes packed with fun for children and families
• Weekly Bookbug and Stay and Play sessions
• Personal development courses, such as the Cognitive Behavioural Therapy-based Living Life to the Full
• Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, promoting a love for reading in young children
• Workshops and events focused on physical activity, creative play, education, social interaction and overall wellbeing.

To maximise support for families, Individual Family Development Plans can be tailored for participants, ensuring that each family benefits as much as possible from the initiative.

Notably, Cumbernauld Family Hub has been praised as one of Scotland’s most pioneering family support projects. Its success has drawn interest from other Community and Voluntary Sector organisations looking to implement similar models in their own communities.
