Nursery’s invaluable work
WHEN public services are cut, the pain tends to be borne by people who already have enough to put up with.
Kevin O’Donnell and his one-year-old son Philip both suffer from a potentially fatal enlargement of the heart. Philip’s mum Katerzyna has had chemotherapy.
They received “wonderful” support from Blandford Nursery – but it is facing closure and Philip’s family don’t know whether another nursery would take him.
Dorset County Council argues the nursery is losing money. It clearly knows the price of the service, but does the council really understand its value?
