The Fun Hub CIC
Description
Operating in Maltby, South Yorkshire, one of the 10% most deprived areas in the country, The Fun Hub is dedicated to improving the physical and mental health of residents.
Led by Zoe Croot, an experienced nursery teacher with a portfolio of commercial nurseries, initiatives include after-school sports provision and a community food truck. With 70% of local parents with young children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) unable to access a suitable nursery place, The Fun Hub want to expand on their success by opening a nursery for the hundreds of children with
SEND in the area.
The Fore’s funding will fund the training of 30 nursery staff and essential equipment to turn this idea into a reality to provide a vital service for families.
