Petition Action

Reinstate military family inclusion to 'Together for Two's' in Greenwich.

Petition Details

A recent change in policy has resulted in military family exclusion from the Together for Twos 15hr childcare funding. Families stationed at Royal Artillery Barracks, Woolwich have previously received funding for dependants aged 2. This has been pulled with immediate effect.

Additional Information

Our armed forces have a huge responsibility for the safety and security of our country as a whole. Within this it is often necessary for personnel to physically move around the country which has a huge impact on the families and dependants. In our current stationing at Royal Artillery Barracks military families have to date been included in the Together for Two's childcare programme. A programme that has provided our children stability, social interaction and enabled them to flourish. Key factors that support our children in an environment subject to frequent change. Please don't take this away from us, our families benefit immensely from this added support.
