Play Wales is the national organisation for children's play.

We are a charity that provides advice, support and guidance for all those in Wales who have a concern or responsibility for any environment where children and young people might play. 

We uphold children's right to play.  Freely chosen play is critically important in the healthy development of all children and young people.

All children are entitled to quality play provision within their communities and we work strategically to achieve this goal on their behalf.

We have been closely involved in drafting the national Play Policy (2002) and in providing recommendations for Play in Wales (2006) the Welsh Assembly Play Policy Implementation Plan.

In 2006 we were contracted to work with BIG Lottery Fund in Wales to deliver the Child's Play Programme as part of the Healthy Families Initiative.
