About

Bolton Council is seeking providers to apply for revenue grant funding to support the expansion of wraparound childcare provision across the borough. The Wraparound Childcare Programme Revenue Grant aims to deliver an increase in wraparound childcare places, with applications prioritised in areas identified as having greater need based on the local sufficiency audit and Department for Education data; special consideration will be given to projects that address gaps in provision and support parents in areas with limited current childcare options. Applicants must create an account on The Chest procurement portal where full guidance is available in the ‘How To’ documents, and will be required to undergo additional checks including Health and Safety, insurance and due diligence assessments to support their applications. Round 16 applications are open from Monday 19 October 2026 until 17:00 on Sunday 15 November 2026.
