Galway Bay fm newsroom - More than 300 thousand euro has been sanctioned to help create childcare places in Galway.
It's part of a 4 million euro Government grant to create 5 thousand extra childcare places across the country.
The funding will come in two strands and will be allocated to 12 childcare organisations to help establish NEW school-age childcare services and to 15 organisations in the city and county to help fund the expansion of school-age childcare services.
Minister of State and Galway East T.D, Ciaran Cannon, says it's good news for parents in Galway.
