Free family play events in Shepway for 2010

The Shepway Play MAP (Mobile Activity Programme) is an exciting trail of play events that will take place during all school holiday periods for three years across Shepway (2008-2011).

Three play workers will tour the area with a van full of toys, games and activities and will deliver an exciting range of free play opportunities at play parks and halls across the area.

All children and young people aged 0-18yrs are invited to come and join in the fun at a local indoor venue or outside play area where a host of exciting toys, games and activities will greet them.

All play sessions are free of charge for all children and young people. Parents and carers are welcomed to accompany children, join in and make a family day of it should they wish.

FOR YOUR SAFETY: All children and young people are free to come and go throughout the duration of the play sessions. All staff have police checks carried out by the Criminal Records Bureau and there will always be a Qualified First Aid member of staff present. Risk assessments of the sites and play equipment are undertaken at the start of each session.

All play sessions provided on the timetable below are funded by the Big Lottery.
