Play & Family Services

CALA Play & Family Services supports children and families primarily across Highland, and further afield when needed. We work within local communities to ensure support is available where it’s needed most, delivering play opportunities and family support shaped around the needs, interests and strengths of children and families.

With thanks to our funders, we work in partnership with other organisations and professionals including Highland Council, NHS Highland, Health Visitors, Community Service Workers, community groups, and local and national funders to provide joined-up, supportive services for families.

Our Play & Family Services team provides regular play sessions, family groups and tailored support, always putting children and families at the heart of everything we do.
