As part of a new Government package of support announced last year, eligible working parents of two-year-olds across Old Bexley and Sidcup can now apply for 15 hours childcare per week, beginning in April this year.
Local parents have until the 31 March to apply for this support and further information on the rollout of this support is available on the below Government link:

Welcoming the news Louie said:
"As a relatively younger MP, I know how hard it is for families to juggle the competing demands of work, childcare and everyday life.
That's why I warmly welcome the support the Government has announced to help parents across the country and I would encourage all local parents to apply for this support as soon as possible".
