Field Study Centres Under Threat

10th May 2011

12 Field study centres have notified the Field Studies Council that they will soon close due to local authority budget cuts. Steve Tilling, a spokesman for the Field Studies Council, said: "If you add up the number of children attending those centres at the moment, it will be about 310,000 children who will miss out. That will make a significant dent in the opportunities for those children."
