PLAY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

The project supports the development of play opportunities within communities and geographical areas where access to play opportunities is limited. It also has a soft play room offering free drop in sessions for disabled and disadvantaged children and their families in an area of acute deprivation.  The new soft play room offers a separate multi use space for arts and crafts, reading and further play.  We have an experienced Play Supervisor on hand to lead sessions with parent/cares and children and to offer help and advice about how you can facilitate play independently.  For further information contact Gwen on 020 8373 2699

Outreach!

All sessions are free of charge provided by ECYPS. There is no booking process but you are advised to turn up early as space is subject to numbers. Please note these are not child care facilities. Carers are encouraged to stay if they wish or to make arrangements to meet young people at the end of sessions. Young people are not the responsibility of staff outside of the room. Please remember that sessions are meant to be fun, but our staff is there to run a safe session for everyone. Anyone taking part needs to listen to and respect staff members; anyone not mindful of this will be asked to leave. Please come in comfortable clothing and footwear.
