Local Authority Play Strategies

Local Authority Play Strategies are plans developed by local governments to improve play opportunities for children in their communities. These strategies focus on creating safe, accessible, and inclusive play spaces, such as parks and playgrounds, while also promoting active play in schools and neighborhoods. They involve engaging with families, children, and other stakeholders to understand their needs and preferences. The goal is to support children's physical, social, and emotional development through play, ensuring that all children have the chance to enjoy quality play experiences regardless of their background or abilities.
