Welcome to Silkysteps!
It depends on where you live as to what share of the capital grant you get / do not get.
In some areas childminders are being totally excluded from the capital grant...
In others they are receiving a few hundred pounds which must be spent on specific resources
In others they are receiving a few resources - digital cameras seem popular
I know one childminder who was awarded £25k for an extension to her house and another who got £15k for new patio doors and outside play resources.
the hoops they are having to jump through to get the grant also varies depending on the council involved.
I hope this helps!
