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

Freely chosen play is critically important to all children and young people as part of their every day lives and within their own communities. 

We work to raise awareness of children and young peoples need and right to play and to promote good practice at every level of decision making and in every place where children might play.
 

We provide advice and guidance to support all those who have an interest in, or responsibility for providing for childrens play so that one day Wales will be a place where we recognise and provide well for every childs play needs.

Play Wales North Office Closes

25 June 2009
We are very sad to announce that our North Wales office will close on 17 July 2009. This has been a very difficult decision to make, it has involved our Trustees and management team, who have evaluated the financial and strategic situation.
