The Council is continuing with the Plan for Municipal Aid to Unemployed Families for Nursery School Places for the academic year 2013/2014, but this time it will be not only unemployed mothers who can benefit, but also fathers.
As usual the scheme covers children aged up to 3 years and is designed to assist mothers, and now fathers, who need time to attend training courses or apply for jobs.
There will be 20 grants of €50 per month available for nursery school places and anyone interested should contact the Centro de Información a la Mujer. Applications can be made as from the beginning of July.
The scheme has been operating since 2005.
