The Family Information Service Directory

The Family Information Service Directory is based on the ABCD Children’s Directory by Shetland Childcare Partnership and Shetland Islands Council.

The new directory’s aim is to highlight places, facilities and organisations that are particularly useful to parents and families.

The directory is depending on everyone to contribute on new information for families; its goal is to be amended as we go – both by people in the S.I.C, volunteer organizations and others. If your information is not included here, or your information or contact details has changed, please contact The Bruce Family Centre with your details.
