Original Note:
Previously there was a network of SureStart centres across the UK numbering 3,620. Since 2010 1,416 have closed and the rest have had their programmes slashed thanks to a 54% cut in funding. This new program attempts to replace what was lost but with less funding/support. https://researchbriefings.files.parliament.uk/documents/CBP-7257/CBP-7257.pdf https://www.newstatesman.com/thestaggers/2023/02/replacing-lost-sure-start-centres-is-a-tacit-admission-of-austeritys-failure#:~:text=Since%202010%2C%20the%20policy%20of,sites%20linked%20to%20Sure%20Start.
