The Early Years & Childcare Partnership  (EYDCP) is made up of people who:

• Work in early years & childcare
• Work with parents and carers who use childcare such as Job Centre Plus
• Provide training to people who work with children
• Are local councillors
• Other agencies and organisations which have an interest in early years and childcare

The Partnership meets twice a year and provides a forum for consultation and reflection on issues affecting the sector.
