The benefits are demonstrated and measured through our Sure start data base which provide information on how many families are registered and how many families are up taking and using our services. We have evaluations that we provide at all our events, we have suggestion boxes at all our centres and continually ask parents for feedback. We keep a record on all families registered within the project. We provide crèche facilities for all our children registered and there is a small potential for the children to trip or fall when in our setting, however all staff are fully training in heath and & safety, all have paediatric first aid, food hygiene training and all staff adhere to the child protection ad vulnerable adult policy. There is no private benefit flowing from the purpose of the project .
