Hi there,
We've received the following media request.
Thanks,
MNHQ
My name is Phoebe and I'm a journalist at ITV News Central in Birmingham.
We are running a story on grandparents helping with childcare during school holidays, after school, inset days, etc, and we need your help!
We want to speak to a grandparent from the West Midlands who already helps with childcare throughout the year. And we need to film the interview on Monday 30th.
Here are the questions we would ask:
- How much more childcare will you be doing over the school summer holidays and why?
- Are you surprised that so many grandparents are relied upon to help with summer childcare?
- What impact would it have if you weren't around to help out?
We can film them at a park or in their home if they're comfortable. It will be in person and will only take 20 minutes. Contact Phoebe via [email protected] if you're interested.
