I'm hyper-aware that it's Care Experience Week next week. I often find it to be tokenistic and I'm usually unsure how to challenge that.

Department of Education survey on childcare in Northern Ireland. Really important that parents feed in on the impact of childcare costs and availability here, as this feedback is being considered when the Dept is developing the childcare strategy.
