Council bails out nursery |
by www.northumberlandgazette.co.uk - added 17/09/2008 |
This article is related to a nursery facility in Northumberland.
A private nursery has been given a temporary home by Northumberland County Council after it was damaged in last week's floods. Goosehill Day Nursery in Morpeth, which looks after 35 children, was badly affected by the floods and its premises may be out of action for months.
The county council offered to help out the nursery, and local parents, by allowing it to run from Choppington Children's Centre.
Nursery owner Amanda Willis said: "Without this help there was a real risk that I would lose children and staff and the business would fail to survive. I just can't thank them enough."
Jeff Reid, leader of Northumberland County Council, said: "It's crucial that we are providing as much support as we possibly can, both to residents and businesses.
"In providing a temporary home for Goosehill nursery, we are saving a valuable resource for families."
