Childcare public meeting date set
A provisional date has been set for a public meeting on the future of Community Childcare for Wednesday 16 February.
This follows deliberations by a Working Group at a meeting last week organised by Kilcullen Community Action and involving representatives from a number of other groups with an interest in childcare and the recent loss of a €600,000 grant for a new Community Childcare Centre.
These were the Naomh Bride Community Playgroup, the Carer & Toddlers Group, and Kilcullen Community Centre Ltd.
The Diary understands that the Working Group meeting ended on a positive note and that there is scope for moving forward on the issue 'in a spirit of mutual cooperation'.
The public meeting is being organised by KCA and will have an outside and independent chairperson.
We'll have more details closer to the time.
