The story of how parent campaigners and childcare workers joined forces to open community nurseries and children’s centres during the 1970s and 80s is told through a new website that maps childcare activism in London. nurseryworld.co.uk/content/n…
"Hackney Council admits to unlawful consultation over children’s centre closures" - our clients' successful judicial review covered by @hackneycitizen this week hackneycitizen.co.uk/2024/11…
🎇Great news for the Hackney Children Centre nurseries, staff and children! But shame on @hackneycouncil for putting them through this. It is disgustingly underhand that they refused to publish the external consultants full report.

.@HackneyAbbott thank you for standing with us and our kid. Will @hackneycouncil , @carowoodley now stand up for our children too and commit to save our children's centres?
This is the kind of cold, callous, inadequate & disrespectful comms sent out by @hackneycouncil officers to #Hackney’s hardworking Children’s Centre staff at affected centres who have been living with the possibility of losing their jobs for months/years for Fernbank. Shameful.
Our campaign’s win against @hackneycouncil was featured on the @BBCLondonNews tonight! So proud at what we’ve achieved but so angry & sad that it took legal action to make the council listen to residents. @carowoodley must now commit to safeguarding #Hackney’s Children’s Centres!

It’s sad that we have to resort to legal action but we are left with no choice. We must protect these vital services at all costs & if @hackneycouncil@carowoodley won’t fight to save our children’s centres then #Hackney’s residents will do so. Huge thanks to @ris_law@alexrook1!
So that’s it, the end of the 1st stage of this fight- thanks to everyone who completed the consultation survey! But we’re not going anywhere until @hackneycouncil@carowoodley listen to #Hackney residents who are united in rejecting Children’s Centre closures. Watch this space!
Are you involved in a campaign to stop the closure of a council-run nursery/maintained #nursery school or Children’s Centre? If so, please get in touch! Particularly keen to hear from you if you are up against a @UKLabour council! Please retweet! #childcare#EarlyYears#SaveMNS
