Have your say! The Council is planning changes to children’s centres across Bradford.
· The proposal includes bringing children’s centres into a 0 - 19 Prevention and Early Help Service, managed by the Council.
· This means that children’s centres will be part of a larger service, that includes support for older children too.
· The proposal includes a cut of £13.3 million to the budget for children’s centres and the other services included in the proposal. This means that up to half of our staff will lose their jobs.
· There is nothing in the proposal about Stay and Play sessions, adult education courses and outreach.
