UK Play Policy

The UK Play Policy is a framework designed to promote safe, inclusive, and engaging play environments for children, recognizing play as essential for development and well-being. It encourages local authorities, schools, and communities to provide accessible play areas, support diverse play activities, and ensure safety standards. The policy emphasizes the importance of outdoor, unstructured play for children’s physical, social, and emotional growth. By fostering supportive environments, it aims to enhance children’s creativity, independence, and resilience while promoting social inclusion and community cohesion.
