CALA Membership

Become a CALA member today and join a strong, supportive network working together to make a difference for children and families.
CALA membership is open to early learning, childcare and family support groups, as well as individuals, across Highland and beyond. As a member, you’ll have access to practical advice, ongoing support, training opportunities and useful resources, along with regular updates and opportunities to connect with others working in the sector.
As one of the largest childcare and family organisations delivering services on the ground, CALA also plays a key advisory role and acts as a national and regional voice for the sector. We sit on national working groups and use our real-life experience to ensure the voices of those supporting children and families are heard both locally and nationally. Our membership brings services together, strengthens practice and helps create high-quality, inclusive support within communities.
