The Play Services Team at this charity deliver a wide range of play related services which can be broadly broken down into three areas: Direct delivery of play, Support for deliverers of play and Partnership working – you name it, they do it! they support Breakfast Clubs, After School Clubs, Holiday Play Schemes and schools looking to improve their lunchtime provision with activities, resources or staff development.

• Do you have the skills to be able to help revamping their hire equipment. The equipment is in desperate need of cleaning, repairing and painting. Children learn through play so it is important that the equipment looks attractive and inviting to them. The activity is not for the faint hearted as there is lots to be done! This activity can take place on Monday 5th, Tuesday 6th or Wednesday 7th June.
