Applying for Two Year Old Funding

If your household income exceeds £15,400 a year or less after tax then please do not apply here. Please visit Childcare Choices (Opens in New Window) for more information. 

You can apply online for up to 15 hours of free childcare for your two year old if you are in receipt of certain income based benefits.

2-year-olds can also get free childcare if they:
  • are looked after by a local authority
  • have an education, health and care (EHC) plan
  • get Disability Living Allowance (opens in a new window)
  • have left care under an adoption order, special guardianship order or a child arrangements order
If you have No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) please apply here rather than using the portal and send the E-Form to 2yroldfunding@portsmouthcc.gov.uk
