new funding arrangements

[finleysmaid]

Hi All

sorry been busy so not been on much! Has anyone got any ideas as to how to stop us all going out of business? !!!!

we are a not for profit charity in a sole use rented property currently offering 32,5 hours care and education, 38 weeks a year for the grand sum of £32.50 a week. This is claimed from a charge for lunch club of £6.50 a day in between our two sessions. We do not demand people attend it and they are welcome to take their children out for lunch ! the new government rules will expect me to 'put' this half hour session somewhere else in the day but we run after school club so cant jiggle much. Anyone have a get round/good idea/solution?????? getting rather concerned this small change in wording could remove 33k from our bottom line and put us out of work!

Hi fm

So good to see you posting ❤️

So sorry that I can't help you, as you know I am long retired, can't believe that you haven't had any responses, must be so many in the same position, hopefully this will 'bump' for you...
