That's great that there has been such a interest

Has anyone come across any feedback from other OBC meetings apart from the London one?

I believe most meetings have now taken place so it would be good to share what was discussed and any further actions...so far only London has done so unless I missed the feedback from others?
Did any CMs attend their local OBC ...how was it?

Goodness I wish the London ones were on a Sat. So far ours have been during the day and if they do this again I won't be able to attend again which is a shame. I think it is very discriminating toward childminders but they don't seem to understand as it is run by a Nursery Manager.

If it was on a Saturday many would not be able to make it...the same that some can't make during the week...it is never easy organising such events as there is always disappointment

I would say that the Chair of the London OBC is a bit more than a 'nursery manager'...... would you not?
the important thing is that CMs attend and have their say and I would say CMs are speaking up and being herd...whether it will make a difference we will have to wait and see
