FUNFISHERS EXTENSION APPEAL

Fantastic setting that would highly benefit from this much needed extension

Funfishers provides a great service for families in the Fishergate area and beyond. The extension will improve the facilities for the kids and allow more kids and families to benefit from using this excellent nursery, out-of-school club and holiday club. I hope the Council will reconsider the decision.

This is a fantastic setting for children of all ages and needs. I feel the extension would be beneficial for everyone and make their experience at funfishers awesome!

Any childcare provision should have the right to extend their premises and increase and improve the service they provide for our children

I think the extension should go ahead as it is will improve the setting for the children and parents who use it.

More room for more kids to progress and be more adventurous

A fantastic and friendly nursery with excellent staff. I’d welcome the expansion to keep its facilities modern, provide all weather development opportunities for the children as well as keeping the appearance of the building.

Funfishers, would benefit a lot from having this extention. The kids would have much needed room to play and learn.

Such a valuable service to parents who want/need to work. The staff do a brilliant job let them extend!

More natural light indoors would have such a positive result.

This extension will enable Funfishers to move in to the future. My Granddaughters love going to Funfishers I very much support this as a Grand parent. See More

I give this my full support

i think the nursery needs extending to refuse is nonsense

This looks like a very sensitive addition to the current building. The fact that it provides desperately needed, affordable childcare to a broad demographic means it's just common sense! Come on CYC planners! What's the problem here?!

I totally agree that this extension is needed and is in keeping with the existing building/area. More preschool places especially are needed, with local nurseries and playgroups full. This would really benefit families in not just Fulford but also the Heslington Road and Tang Hall areas who also send their children there.

This extension will make a huge difference to children using these premises. Both my children attended funfishers and they desperately need more space and light for their activities and learning.

That last word should be decision!

This project would benefit so many people - affordable childcare spaces are desperately needed in York. The design of the new extension is sensitive to its surroundings and huge effort has been made to ensure that it works with the Brierly building. The Civic Trust has said they support this project and that should be taken as an endorsement of the design - they would not support a project which would be to the detrimental to an important local building. CoYC - please overturn this totally perverse design.

I support this application because I consider the design to be in keeping with the adjacent building whilst not competing with it

Surely it is commonsense to allow this additional space to be created. For the sake of the children and the parents please take note of this petition allow Funfishers to have their much needed extension.
