An organisation that spearheads regeneration projects and community building is teaming up with a leading childcare consultancy to open day nurseries in deprived areas in the UK. The Places for People Group, which has named its childcare subsidiary Places for Children, has hired former Jigsaw Day Nurseries chief executive Tom Shea to launch a number of Neighbourhood Nurseries. The first of the nurseries, which will all be new-build, opens in Hackney later this year, while others are planned in the London boroughs of Lewisham, Hounslow, Islington, Ealing and Southwark, as well as Manchester, Watford, Southampton and Newcastle.
