Childcare Federation to host emergency meeting in Lackagh

The Childcare Federation is holding an emergency meeting in Lackagh this lunchtime. 

The organisation is hosting meetings nationwide as it warns the sector is on the verge of "falling apart". 

Issues include rising costs, staff recruitment and retention, worker burnout, and insurance. 

The meeting takes place at Teddy Bear Lodge Creche in Lackagh this afternoon at 1. 

Owner Hazel Curran says staffing is a major problem.
