PLEASE HELP UP TO SAVE OUR EXPLORERS NURSERY AT PRIORY CHIILDREN'S CENTRE, RAMSGATE




you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/save-our-nursery-stop-kent-county-council-s-closure-of-ramsgate-explorers-nursery-site

 
 

 
As you may be aware KCC are running a public consultation 17th January to 26 March 2023

on proposed changes to some of their community services.

One of the proposals they are making is to close Priory Children’s Centre, which is home to our Explorers Nursery.

Should this closure take place, it is likely to take several years, and therefore could potentially affect the nursery by 2026.
 
Please sign our petition and following our campaign. Please click on the link above.
 
THANK YOU



The Mayor of Ramsgate Cllr Raushan Ara and Kent County Councellor and Former Mayor of Ramsgate visited the Explorers Nursery on Monday 24th January 2023

The two councillors have spoken out against the proposed closure of Priory Children’s Centre – home to popular Explorers Nursery.

Cllr Ara stated “I encourage all of Ramsgate’s residents to back the nursery’s new petition and force Kent County Council to rethink these devastating proposals.”
