FLINTSHIRE parents can take advantage of free childcare.
Parents can apply for the Welsh Government funded 'Childcare Offer' via Flintshire County Council’s website.
The childcare offer provides eligible working parents 30 hours of a combination of early education and childcare for three and four year olds, for up to 48 weeks of the year.
Families will be able to access the childcare offer from the start of the term - following the child's third birthday - until the September after their fourth birthday.
All parents or co-habiting couples, in households that work the equivalent of at least 16 hours or more at the national minimum wage or over, not exceeding £100,000 per parent, are eligible for the offer.
To find out more, contact the Family Information Service Flintshire on: 01352 703500 or email fisf@flintshire.gov.uk. To apply, please go to
