Welcome Nurseries – the fourth largest nursery group in the UK – has gone through a pre-packaged administration sale of 26 of its settings, leaving the fate of the remaining nurseries and its staff unclear.

The group previously had at least 48 settings, largely in the North of England and the Midlands, and employed 750 people, providing more than 5,000 childcare places.

As we revealed on Tuesday, six nurseries have recently closed.

Nursery World understands that an 81-place nursery in Mansfield has also now closed.
