Petition Free Universal Childcare
More details
Free childcare for all children in the UK prior to starting nursery or school.
Childcare in Europe is free and allows those on low and middle incomes to work. This is not the case in the UK and this petition aims to change the law so that childcare can become affordable and financially viable.
This would also stimulate the economy as parents can take jobs and more childcare places would also result in more staff being hired to cover this increase in need.
