Stanwell SureStart

Locals will know that several regeneration projects in Stanwell have hit snags, many of a legal nature.
Today at long last, groundwork started on new premises for the Stanwell Children’s Centre in Hadrian Way. At the moment nearby Portakabins house the vital service which supports disadvantaged families with young children, mainly as a place where they can turn to in need of help.
SureStart is one of the Labour Government’s few success stories. Contrary to Labour’s propaganda the Conservatives will not slash the scheme. In fact it needs developing so that it is more effective at a local level.
So instead of providing yoga classes for yummy mummies, SureStart should be seeking out the most deprived families in our broken society, and ensure everyone has a fair start in life.
