Businesses around town www.thefamilygrapevine.co.uk There is some great news for parents of little ones in this autumn/winter issue - the Toddler Timetable is back! Use it as a rough guide to what is normally available to keep your babies and toddlers occupied and socialising, and do double check on individual websites / Facebook pages before making any firm plans, as there has still been some uncertainly from quite a few groups as to how and when they were going to get back up and running properly again, plus we don't know what the winter months have in store for us in terms of any further disruption...(fingers crossed absolutely none). Discount Vouchers are unfortunately not back in the Mid Sussex Family Grapevine magazine quite yet, although the Crawley & Horsham Family Grapevine magazine does have its first Discount Voucher in over a year! You will, however, find Four fantastic Competitions to win a range of Gifts and Experiences, so don't forget to enter your details via the website for any competitions which take your fancy. www.thefamilygrapevine.co.uk/midsussex/competitions/ As always, many thanks to the advertisers who have placed adverts with the Mid Sussex Family Grapevine this issue. Please do support your local businesses; they are a very hard working bunch who have had a terribly rough time recently and, now more than ever, they would love to hear from you. Take care and have a wonderful autumn, Christmas and New Year.
