Grants of nearly 250,000 have been awarded to build or renovate six day nurseries in England to boost the Government's Neighbourhood Nurseries Initiative. The New Opportunities Fund's (NOF) Building Neighbourhood Nurseries programme last week awarded more than 234,000 to fund the building of three new nurseries and the development of a further three.
