The occasion was the launch of a book, Building for Young Children - A Guide to planning, designing and creating the perfect space, written by architect Mark Dudek and produced by the National Early Years Network as part of a project on good design for young children, with support from the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation.
Phil Hope, MP for Corby, said, 'The current capital development programme of publicly-funded provision, such as the Sure Start, Neighbourhood Nurseries and Early Excellence Centre initiatives, opens up exciting design opportunities for the 21st century. To benefit young children these projects require informed and inspired cross-professional working which will be promoted by this guide.'
The book is available for 13 (inc p&p) from the National Early Years Network on 020 7607 9573.
