WPA involved in £2m Play England Free Time Consortium bid.

'WPA is part of the Play England Free Time Consortium, a group of 17 local and specialist organisations working together to increase children and young people's opportunities for play and recreation.

The Cabinet Office's Social Action Fund grant is contributing to the Consortium to increase social action in support of children's play. Partners are embarking on a number of exciting new projects to make this happen and Play England's Love Outdoor Play campaign is calling on everyone to Love Outdoor Play in whatever way they can.

This could be as simple as taking five minutes to map their local play space on the online map, signing up to regularly give money, time or skills to a local play project, or finding out about local – or national – volunteering opportunities to help more children play outside more often.
