Invitation to join Play Englan

Since our launch in 2006, Play England has worked with government and partners in the play and related sectors to help effect real change in policy for children's play and better opportunities for free play providers. Now, with local and national play strategies recently launched, it is an exciting time to get involved and ensure that children and young people get real, long-term benefit from these changes.

As well as continuing to support local, regional and national partners, Play England promotes quality standards in all aspects of play provision. We also research and demonstrate the benefits of play, to raise awareness - at all levels - of the need to provide high quality play opportunities for all children and young people.

One of our strengths is that we work with and on behalf of our members, building consensus and providing a strong voice for the play sector. Play England members meet regularly as the Play England Council (formerly Children's Play Council) to help us develop our strategy, form policy positions and to share good practice, information and support with each other.

Regular mailings will keep you up-to-date with the latest news and policy initiatives for the play sector, plus in-depth briefings on key topics. Further benefits include discounts on publications, conferences and training, plus access to NCB's library and information service.
