Leicestershire County Council U-turns on Closing Special Needs Nurseries
Leicestershire County Council has reversed its decision to close four special needs nurseries, following significant public backlash. The sites include Lift Beacon in Loughborough, Oasis Retreat in Melton, and Menphys locations in Wigston and Burbage. After a six-week consultation received over 2,500 responses and a petition with 2,000 signatures, the council announced the change on February 27th. Parents, including a mother whose son made significant progress at the Burbage site, expressed relief. Council leader Dan Harrison and the cabinet member for children and families emphasized the importance of supporting children and the impact of public input on local services.
