The BWC Family Network (BWC FN) organises regular meetings, events and activities throughout the year for BWC members and their families. Information is sent by email to BWC FN members including the monthly Mums' Nights Out, annual Christmas Party, "nanny available" notices and other valuable information.  

The FN coordinators are as follows (contact email: bwcfamnet@gmail.com):

Please contact Jennifer or Emily if you have joined the BWC but have not yet received any emails from the FN and if you would like to start a new group or organise a special activity or event for any age group. Thank you!

The "Children in Moscow" guide is available online at: www.childreninmoscow.ru. This is a comprehensive source of family-friendly information for families visiting or living in Moscow (now with an interactive map).  

The BWC FN Toddler Swimming sessions have been closed down by the Embassy due to liability concerns so Jennifer is looking for a new suitable venue. An email will be sent to all FN members once a venue is confirmed and a new swimming group formed. 
Note: Those keen to swim with their children are advised to check the swimming pool entries on the Entertainment & Sports Centres page at www.childreninmoscow.ru.

The BWC FN Mother & Toddler group is being re-organised by Melissa. Please contact her if you would like to be involved with this group and if you have any queries or ideas.

Please contact any of the FN coordinators if you would like to organise a special family-friendly event or activity. Previous events have included weekend brunches, bowling, outdoor sports days, summer beach picnics etc.

The monthly Mums' Nights Out are usually held on the Thursday following the monthly Embassy meeting, at 8pm. Dads are invited to join us occasionally (during the quieter summer months and in January).

Please email the FN if you are a BWC FN member but haven't yet received an email about these dinners.

The popular annual BWC FN Christmas Party is usually held during the first weekend of December. An invitation will be sent to all BWC FN members with full information and tickets will be on sale from November. Places are limited so RSVP early to avoid disappointment!
