POSTAL workers are celebrating victory following their success­ful campaign to stop the closure of a nursery at the Mount Pleasant sorting office in Farring­don.

It follows a deal with postal chiefs in which the Communication Workers Union agreed to increased charges for full-time child care.

The nursery was threatened with closure due to a cost-cutting drive.

“Saving Mount Pleasant nursery is fantastic news for the parents who rely on this facility,” said deputy general secrtary of the CWU, Dave Ward.
