What do you do?
Islington has a strong history of play use and this is evolving since the national play strategy was released. We aim to embed play throughout the council and my role is to help the process by developing relationships with a range of agencies and departments, from planning to residents' associations.
What projects are you currently involved with?
I manage the Big Lottery Fund portfolio, which includes several projects, such as the Islington Play Association's play improvement scheme. Islington has a lack of open space and parks for children to play in, but it has 12 adventure playgrounds. We want to redevelop these and make them more accessible to excluded groups.
