Guardea, in the Italian province of Terni, inaugurated its new nursery on 24 October. The Prefecture confirms the ceremony and describes a service also intended for families in nearby Alviano and Lugnano in Teverina. Funding includes Italy’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan, known as the PNRR. [1]

The Province reports capacity for up to 27 children and around 400 square metres, plus outdoor space. Cipss runs the nursery. The investment outlined on 15 October totals about €1.2 million: roughly €1 million from the PNRR and €200,000 from the municipality. [2]

The ribbon-cutting date was not the start of the service: the Province’s 15 October announcement already described the nursery as in use. The inauguration celebrates a completed facility; these sources do not yet measure its effects on employment or population decline. Capacity describes available places, not actual enrolment. [2][1]
