The Early Years Alliance’s new Winter Toolkit is designed to help settings get through what is expected to be a ‘particularly demanding’ year with the normal challenges cold weather presents, on top of Covid-19 and the usual flu season.

To help staff and children stay safe and healthy, the toolkit, which is free to Alliance members, includes a series of guides, posters and other resources addressing seasonal issues with advice on keeping outdoor areas safe, a booster jab reminder poster for staffrooms, guidance on supporting staff wellbeing, and advice on winter outdoor activities.

The pack also includes a template letter to inform parents and carers of a positive Covid-19 case for settings who may not have received anything from their local authority.
