The Early Years Equality action group, which was established last year in reaction to a lack of support for the sector in the autumn statement, has set a date for its planned protest. It will take place on Saturday 18 March in London.

It is one of a number of planned movements by the group, which aims to bring childcare providers together to collectively campaign for better funding to save further settings from closure and ensure the sector’s voices are better heard by the Government.

So far, nearly 100 people have registered to join the protest, which is open to both staff working in childcare settings as well as parents.
