The Early Years Alliance and Ceeda have published a report which shows that childcare providers in London will struggle to survive 2021 following coronavirus (COVID-19). The report was commissioned by the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan and explains that 65% of nurseries and 56% of childminders believe their services are at ‘immediate risk of closure’ or will face potential closure in the next 12 months. Additionally, 70% of nurseries in disadvantaged areas in London consider themselves to be ‘struggling’ compared to 59% in more affluent areas.
