Happy Days in Lyde Green in Bristol opens next month

Both are new builds and will offer 81 places and employ 25-30 employees.

The new setting in Lyde Green, Bristol, in March will be the group’s 21st nursery.

Building work has recently started on the new nursery on the outskirts of Salisbury in the village of Old Sarum, which the group said would provide large indoor and outdoor spaces.

Kevin Higgs, development director at Happy Days Nurseries, said, ‘We are delighted to be working with Henry Davidson Developments and Rigg Construction to bring forward our new nursery setting as part of the local centre at Long Hedge, Old Sarum, Salisbury.

‘We anticipate being open in August 2020 offering places for children from three months to four years adding much needed provision in this part of the city. We have been working closely with the council prior to the construction of the setting and look forward to engaging with local stakeholders leading up to opening.’
