Hello everyone,

Do you live in SE London? Do you have children?

You may have heard that Lewisham Council have proposed closing 3 Sure Start nurseries, Ofsted rated 'Good', 'Good' and 'Outstanding', this Summer. This will mean we lose over 150 nursery places locally, which will make the local childcare market even more difficult, affecting everyone with children and more widely local people generally. These 3 nurseries also provide excellent and integrated settings for children with special needs or challenging social/ economic circumstances.

There are various activities being carried out to try and prevent the closures, including a petition to register volume of objection and a parents/ carers survey about your experience of finding suitable childcare.

1) It would help greatly if you could please sign the petition:

2) If you have children, it would help even more if you could please fill out the survey. It only takes a few minutes.

3) Lastly, it would help enormously if you could please cut and paste this message and forward it (via email/ Facebook etc) to all parents, residents, action groups in SE London that you know, and ask them to do the same. Likewise any connections you have in the media or relevant organisations.

If you are interested in doing even more to help, or can spread some 'hard copies' too, please contact us:

Thanks very much!
