Synopsis

The story of the Children's Community Centre at Dartmouth Park Hill, London. This is a co-operatively run centre with playgroups and other child-centred activities for both children and adults. With the aid of a local authority grant, two experienced playgroup leaders are employed, but much of the work is done by the parents on a voluntary basis. As well as seeing the activities of the centre, also explores the philosophies of the organising parents (which sometimes conflict), and the basic differences between this and most playgroups.
