Wigan Council seeks families views and experiences of early years childcare in Wigan

Early Education Entitlement (0–5 years)

The expanded national funded childcare offer now allows more eligible families to receive up to 30 hours of funded childcare during term time for children aged 9 months up to school age. This has increased demand for early years childcare across Wigan.

To ensure we can meet future needs, we are inviting parents to share their experiences of accessing early years childcare.
