Things to do with kids in Ely
Ely’s family outings are rooted in its community spaces. On Cowbridge Road West, Ely and Caerau Hub brings books and children’s activities together, while The Dusty Forge hosts a family-friendly community meal. Michaelston Road’s children’s centre offers free groups for local Ely and Caerau families. For school-age children there is beginner street dance at Cardiff West, and the oldest children can explore the junior and inclusive clubs at North Ely Youth Centre. A woodland walk from Llewellyn Avenue offers a different pace: choose one local activity rather than trying to cover the whole River Ely trail.
Browse books and make crafts at Ely and Caerau Hub, find a local children’s centre group, or try street dance and youth clubs. The Dusty Forge hosts a family-friendly community meal, and Llewellyn Avenue gives access to a quieter woodland outing.
