Great News About Paediatric First Aid Funding

From the Gloucestershire.gov.uk website…

Gloucestershire Local Authority will make a funding contribution towards the cost of paediatric First Aid training for childminders and settings, not schools or home carers. On completion of an appropriate EYFS compliant training, settings may apply for payment of up to £60.00 per practitioner up to a maximum of 3 practitioners per setting per financial year (1st April-31st March).

To receive the funding contribution childminders and practitioners should email a scanned copy of their certificate which must be from a company providing EYFS compliant training together with a receipt for payment.

Please note this funding is subject to availability and is no guarantee of future funding.
