There's an emergency childcare service but its HORRIFICALLY expensive http://www.emergencychildcare.co.uk/index/index.php


Is it niot possible to take some time off? You're entitled to that if your childcare breaks down 9i think its called carer's leave). I know this isn't always looked upon kindly by employers. You might also find a childminder witha gap that day if their charges are off on holiday 9 its the school holidays then...


Good luck with sorting something out

    • Per Cllr McAsh, as quoted above: “We are currently updating our Enforcement Policy and changes will allow for the issuing of civil penalties ranging from £175 to £300 for visible smoke emissions, replacing the previous reliance on criminal prosecution. " Is anyone au fait with the Clean Air Act 1993, and  particularly with the state of 'Smoke Control' law and practice generally?  I've just been looking  through some of it for the first time and, afaics, the civil penalties mentioned  were introduced into the Clean Air Act, at Schedule 1A, in May 2022.  So it seems that, in this particular,  it's a matter of the enforcement policy trailing well behind the legislation.  I'm not criticising that at all, but am curious.
