Examples in Wales

Across Wales, all sorts of organisations and groups run play projects or make sure children have opportunities to play. This includes local and regional play associations, councils and schools. What they offer ranges from street play sessions to community skate parks.

Here are some examples of playful areas and play projects happening in Wales. They may:

  • Be close to where you live so you can visit them

  • Inspire you with ideas about things you could do in your community

  • Help you make the case for play in your local area.
