Sue Robb of 4Children talks to Julie Laughton and Alison Britton from the Department for Education about the role of childminders in delivering the 30 hours free entitlement.
A new survey has shown that two in five adults in the UK feel lonelier under the lockdown as a result of the tight limits it has placed on social contact.
The British Red Cross findings paint a stark picture of Britain as a society where a substantial minority lack regular face-to-face interaction and feel alone and uncared for.
The survey of 2,000 adults shows that 28 per cent worried that no one would notice if something happened to them. A further 33 per cent said they feared that their feelings of loneliness would get worse in the years ahead.
Other key findings showed that 37 per cent of adults said their neighbours were like strangers to them and 31 per cent feel they have no one to turn to when they are confronting a problem.
The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport recently established a £5 million fund to award grants to charities and local groups to tackle the problem of loneliness.
