Actress Charlotte Riley says that a nursery she co-founded for those in the film industry is the “first time in the history of film”.
Wonderworks nursery near to Warner Bros Studios in Leavesden was co-founded a year ago – and the mum-of-two says that it was “all kinds of wrong” that women in the industry had to choose between advancing their careers or a child.
Riley, who is married to actor Tom Hardy, told
The Times that it is a “privilege” to not have to rely on childcare for ten hours a day – as many people cannot afford to not be working and put aside their career duties.
