Join us to celebrate Leeds: ‘the city that plays!’ on the International Day of Play as we celebrate our commitment to prioritising play and share some of the fantastic work that’s been happening to champion children’s right to play.

In Leeds we have attracted a national spotlight for our trailblazing work to make play everyone’s business and to prioritise children’s time, space and permissions to play in their homes, streets, green spaces and across local authority policy and practice.

In line with the Raising The Nation — A commission on play and the release of a national play plan to shape future government policy (to be released also on the International Day of Play), this event will showcase the incredible partnership work of our city in championing children’s right to play, as well as coming together to co-produce our vision for a playful Leeds moving forwards.

Your presence at this event would be so greatly valued to highlight the support we have secured for play at our highest levels of decision-making and to help us shape the future vision for Leeds.
