Rejected petition Save Market Playgroup, an outstanding ofstead Islington nursery

Market playgroup is an affordable outstanding nursery & has been looking after our children for 40yrs. Hyde have sold the premisies & the new landlord has increased the rent by £27,000. which the council are unwilling to pay & we can not afford. We need to find a new suitable premises in Islington

More details

Market playgroup also provide special care for children with special needs. We don't understand why the council have allowed islington to lose an outstanding nursery & why Hyde have sold it cheaply without our knowledge or an offer to us first. If the council are not willing to pay the rent, we have to find a new safe, permanent premises for our children. All children, especially those with special needs, need structure & security which market playgroup & it's staff provide in abundance.
