Funding for all nurseries and childminders whilst open

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

If Nurseries and childminders have to stay open then they should all get their funding, even if the parent keeps the child at home to protect them from Covid-19

Some Local authorities are paying the settings and some are not. This is not fair it should be same for all settings that have to remain open.
