THE Children’s Society took over the running of Tithe Farm and Parkside neighbourhood centres in Houghton Regis on Monday.
The charity manages more than 30 centres across the country and has been awarded ‘outstanding’ gradings by Ofsted.
Edwina Pateman of the charity said: “I am certain that together we can have a positive impact for children in Central Beds.”
The centre’s aim is to give children the best start possible by improving health and education.
