About this cause

Children's Scrapstore supports children, families and play professionals to access and enable better play opportunities for children. We offer loose parts and play resources for children, play training and workshops for parent/carers, support, guidance, training and mentoring for play professionals, and play auditing for Early years and schools settings. Our objectives as a re-use charity are to: * enhance play experiences for children by providing a variety of opportunities to extend their play * support adults to facilitate better play opportunities for children through quality training and mentoring * promote self confidence, resilience and cognitive development in children through play * support children and adults to better understand the correlation between play and risk.

How this cause brings people in the community together

The development of the playroom will ensure that local groups, including schools, can better access our play room, that we can extend our offer to local marginalised groups, and that Disabled and non Disabled people have equal access to the space. It will mean that groups can access the space uniquely and be self contained, which is important when working with vulnerable groups and children.
