Birdhouse was established in 2009, with the aim of engaging more children and families in arts and culture. We strive to close a gap by widening equality of access to culture, particularly for those living in areas of low cultural opportunity.

We began by launching an exciting children’s touring theatre programme which sees some of the UK’s most outstanding and imaginative children’s theatre companies perform in local spaces in North East Lincolnshire.

Since its beginnings, Birdhouse has gone from strength to strength, having now engaged more than 50,000 children and their families in a wide range of cultural experiences, from theatre, live music and interactive story-telling, to workshops and family festivals. We work with a range of quality national and regional artists and connect children directly to their work, while offering opportunities alongside this for children to unlock their own imaginations and creativity.

Welcome
?
Welcome to Little City! We are an entirely mobile role play City for the under 6’s to explore and enjoy. Utilising our bespoke backdrops and specially selected high-quality toys and equipment, your child can fully immerse themselves in their own world and welcome you in too!

At Little City your little ones can ‘be’ grown ups: where nothing is off limits, they can be the hairdresser, the firefighter, the builder, the café owner and much, much more.
?
At Little City we strive to:
?
Provide a welcoming, inclusive pretend-play experience for all parents, carers and children under 5, open to the entire community.

The Holiday Activities and Food Fund (HAF) Club is a government-funded initiative that provides FREE activities and food to children throughout the school holidays ensuring every child who is in receipt of free school meal continues to receive a meal during this time, protecting and providing a warm arm around children, as well as a jam-packed schedule full of activities.

Working with talented professionals and other community organisations we provide a range of fantastic opportunities for children to meet new people, learn new skills, and experience things they might not have done before, for example going to the pantomime at Christmas, trips to Nunny's Farm, the Fishing Heritage Centre. How about some arts and crafts on the beach? Or producing your own shows, filming and editing, graffiti art, learning to play new instruments, and much more!

More details about our next HAF holiday club will be available soon, but for more information please contact [email protected]
