What the petition asks

Provide financial support to nurseries or parents paying nursery fees in the instance when there is a Covid case and other children aren’t allowed to attend childcare.
Parents are often forced to pay full child care rates if another child or staff member tests positive with Covid, placing financial strain on families at a time when they may have to lose earnings to look after their child.
