When I was at the Department for Education, I worked very hard to launch the biggest expansion of childcare ever - saving families in East Surrey and across England an average of up to £6,500 a year.

The first stage of our ambitious rollout has now launched, with applications open for working parents of two-year-olds to receive 15 hours of free childcare per week starting from April 2024.

Please visit childcarechoices.gov.uk to find out your eligibility and apply.
