Covid-19 update
It is with regret that Welcare in Bromley is now closed to the public.
In line with the latest government guidelines our staff continues to work with individual parents and children by answering calls, emails and using other digital channels. We continue to receive new referrals for individual, one-to-one support.
We are still working, just differently.
We are offering supermarket vouchers to families most in need, if you wish to refer a family to receive one, plesase email bromley@welcare.org
