Infant Welfare Centres are held at the following places:—

Western Centre, Cavendish Road.—Sessions are held on the
first four Tuesdays of each month. Dr. Cryer attends on the
second and third Tuesdays.
St. Barnabas Church Hall, Gorringe Park.—Sessions are held
on the first four Tuesdays of each month. Dr. Cryer attends on
the first and fourth Tuesdays.
Meopham Road Centre.—Sessions are held on the first four
Mondays of each month. Dr. Cryer attends on the first and fourth
Mondays.
Parish Room, Lower Green.—Sessions are held on the second
and fourth Thursdays of each month. Dr. Cryer attends both
sessions.
