Waltham Forest is one of 67 areas across the country that will be part
of a £75 million programme allowing low-income families to get free
childcare so they can access training and return to work. This
programme will support 50,000 low-income families where one parent is
working and the second parent wants to improve their skills.
As well as free childcare, families will receive help to identify and attend training so they can get the most out of this scheme. The programme will be managed by the Learning and Skills Council and will start in our area in January 2009 before being extended to the rest of the country in September 2009. Childcare costs of up to £205 per week per child in London will be paid directly to the childcare provider. It's part of a package of support Labour is bringing in to help parents now so that they can support their families in the future. If you want to know more about this scheme or the other forms of financial support available to help parents please do get in touch.
