Children tell me all the time about the importance of play and their access to safe outdoor spaces. Today marks #InternationalDayOfPlay and it's clear that children want to engage in play and recreational activities in their areas - read what they said ⤵️

We worked with Didcot Community Partnership to fund the @OxonPlay Play Way Course. It had a great turnout of people already working with children and those thinking of doing so.
We received fantastic feedback and are sure that it will be invaluable to the wider Didcot community.

Another shows a staff member behind our stall before the event began. Bottom right shows 2 staff members smiling wearing Home-Start t-shirts. Another shows the table - example of butterfly craft, leaflets and Annual Report and a messy table. There is also a photo of a delicious ice-cream!
