Is there sufficient childcare in your area for parents who work outside normal office hours?
Parent Champions help other parents to find out about childcare.
29 July 2009
From August 2007 to March 2008, Daycare Trust led the delivery of Parent Champion pilot schemes in three London boroughs; Camden, Newham and Tower Hamlets.
The Parent Champion pilot schemes were designed to test whether, with support and armed with full information, parents with good experiences of childcare can act as advocates in their communities and influence the choice of parents they may not have previously known.
Following the success of the pilot schemes, Daycare Trust were commissioned by DCSF to produce a toolkit for local authorities outlining the processes and resources needed to set up a Parent Champion Scheme.
