REDDITCH YMCA'S nursery services have improved after moving from their Church Hill Centre base to Ravensbank First School.

It moved this week after a £29,000 grant from the Worcestershire Early Years Childcare Development Partnership (EYCDP) in December.

Redditch YMCA chief executive Alan Fraser said: "We've been granted £29,000 over the next three years which will enable us to offer more places and longer hours at an extremely competitive price."

The new base at Ravensbank offers full day care facilities and more places for youngsters.
