3. Foundation Years National Partnership Working Events – FREE to
attend.
Action for
Children is pleased to announce two national partnership working events in the
autumn. Duplicate events will run in the north and the south of England and
with a focus on effective and innovative ways of working in partnership to
deliver quality across the EYFS and the 30 hours offer. The National
Partnership Working Events are in York on 18 October 2017 and London on 2
November 2017.
Throughout
the year, Action for Children has been delivering roadshow events across the
country offering bespoke opportunities for the sector to develop partnership
working. These national events will consolidate the learning from the past 10
months. There will be the opportunity to explore examples of existing good
practice through our case study presentations.
Aim of the session is
to:
- support
all types of settings wishing to work in partnership with each other,
- explore
examples of developing and existing good practice,
- share
experiences and what works within partnership working,
- share
resources and give opportunities for networking.

These
events are being brought to you as part of the Department for Education’s VCS
grant programme and as such carry no participating costs to those attending.
4. Save £140 off your energy bill
Did
you know you could save up to £140 off your energy bill?
The largest energy suppliers* in the UK are offering a £140
discount to customers on low
incomes and certain means tested benefits.
Pensioners receiving eligible benefits automatically receive the Warm
Home Discount, but anyone else who qualifies must apply. There are
standard qualifying benefits, but some energy suppliers offer the discount to a
wider range of customers (e.g. customers with certain health conditions) so
it’s worth contacting your energy supplier to find out if you are eligible
under their scheme.
The Warm Home Discount scheme is
limited and suppliers will close their application process once they have
reached their Government set targets.
So don’t delay and contact your energy supplier today to find out if you are eligible. You can also promote the scheme to parents by
displaying the attached flyer.
Or for more information and friendly advice, call us on 01903 737925 or email info@arunwellbeing.org.uk
*Energy suppliers offering the Warm Home Discount include:
