AFK helps disabled children and young people to live independent and fulfilling lives.

We are located inside Kingston Park Community Centre. We are close to Kingston Park Metro station and shopping centre. We have a large main hall and a lovely all weather outdoor area.

We offer educational childcare for children aged 2 - 4 years. 

We encourage outdoor play every session. During outdoor play children learn about the world around them. They are free to explore at their own pace, as well as try out new experiences during planned activities.

The preschool is situated within the Blakelaw and Cowgate Families Matter Community Hub located on Lindfield Avenue nest door to Thomas Walling Primary School. Children have access to a wide range of developmentally appropriate good quality toys and equipment. We have At Home Bags that allow parents/carers to help their children continue their learning in their home environment. Staff are all qualified in Early Years with some staff having qualifications of Level 4 and above.
