#Playwork #PlayMatters
From a rain-drenched joy-filled #adventureplayground on Monday to sun-drenched terraces at Houses of Parliament yesterday launching @playengland 10 year strategy #ItAllStartsWithPlay
Now which politicians will stand up so all children have space time & freedom to play like this?
Uplifted to attend @PlayEngland’s launch of *It All Starts with Play!* 10-year strategy at @HouseofCommons. Their vision aligns with the Raising the Nation Play Commission’s goals to champion every child’s right to play. 👏🙏 @EugeneMinogue @TomHayesBmouth for your leadership
