Nearly half of children in London surveyed say they do not play out as much as they like.

We want to change this.

A third say they would play out more if it were safer. This is around 10% higher than the UK average.

We aim for every child in London to have high quality, accessible and inclusive play opportunities. We campaign for more and improved play spaces and services, and support playwork in the capital.
