did campaigns for more and better childcare. This meeting will focus on how
pressure was put on institutions and local authorities to provide cheap,
affordable provision. There is also an important story to be told about how
alternative provision was set up outside the mainstream, while sometimes the two
approaches overlapped. Come along and share your experiences, and discuss how
this connects with campaigns today. Speakers will include:<BR>Gail Chester --
The struggle for council and community nurseries in Hackney from the 1970s
onwards<BR>Ivor Kallin -- When Islington nursery workers shared a platform with
the miners<BR>Andrea Francke - History of nursery campaigns at the Royal College
of Art and London College of Communication<BR>and other contributors from
campaigns in higher education and
community settings.</FONT><BR><BR></FONT></DIV></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
