Click Thunderclap before 7.00 pm today to support an increase in childcare funding

Childcare in England is grossly underfunded and many childcare settings and childminders have been forced into closure. Many of them rated as Outstanding by Ofsted.

If you have a family member or friend that uses childcare, or you work in childcare or schools then please help.

There is a ‘very large’ campaign to make the government listen and put in place ‘urgent’ changes to increase funding levels. Without these changes, childcare levels will go down, more settings will be forced to close and the high level of excellent childcare we have in our country will be at an all time low.

The government is turning a blind eye to the chaos it has implemented.

The Facebook page and group called ‘Champagne Nurseries on Lemonade Funding’ asks for your help. There is a Thunderclap set up for 7pm TONIGHT.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/ChampagneNurseries/

Are you a parent, grandparent, carer, aunt, uncle, childcare professional, teacher, nanny? Whoever you are, if you care about the state of childcare today then please help us to make the government listen.

We NEED you NOW!
