Lydia Hodges, Head of Coram Family and Childcare, and Laura Suter, Director of Personal Finance at AJ Bell, dive into the financial struggles of working parents managing childcare costs. They discuss the launch of free breakfast clubs in 750 schools across England and how this can save parents up to £450 annually. The conversation also highlights the UK's tax-free childcare scheme, support options for special needs care, and the critical role of community networks in easing the childcare burden.
