The Childcare Support benefit provides funding towards 24 hours of childcare per week for children under the age of 3.
Together with the government top-up, this covers a total of 30 hours of childcare per week. This is available to UK First Generation Members with children aged 0-3 years and they must be registered with the Trust.
Childcare support can significantly help a family by reducing the financial burden of childcare costs, allowing parents to return to work, study, or pursue training opportunities.
To be eligible you must have a government Tax-Free Childcare account and your childcare must be with a government registered childcare provider. A maximum of £560 per month is available, paid on a quarterly basis, until your child’s 3rd birthday.
If you would like to access Childcare Support please submit your request by email to contact@eagatrust.com and include your child’s full name, date of birth, your government childcare account number (13 digits) and your childcare provider’s name, address and government registration number, along with the amount of funding requested. An Ambassador will be in touch to discuss next steps.
