Childcare Support

Get a helping hand with the cost of childcare

What is Childcare Support?

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.

How it helps

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.

How does it work?

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.
