About BATS
BATS provides support and friendship for mums, dads and carers of babies and toddlers in the Penarth area (Penarth, Llandough, Sully, Dinas Powys).
Why join?
Make friends Our social events and activities are a great chance for you and your kids to make new friends, as well as get help and support for all those parenting challenges.
Support your local community Take part in a local voluntary group, either as a member of the committee, or just by helping out at the Nearly New Sales or other events. And remember, Sale helpers get first look at the bargains!
Good causes Our Nearly New Sales and other fundraising events raise money for local children's causes, distributed through our grants scheme.
