1 min read
Whether you're a parent, teacher or councillor, there are lots of ways to get involved in Playday - here are a few ideas to get you started:

Families

  • Celebrate Playday with friends and family. If there isn't a Playday event near you, get to know your neighbours by organising an event

Schools

  • Use the Playday drawing consultation to lead discussions about play and why it's important
  • Tell pupils about Playday and nearby events taking place over the summer holidays
  • Hold your own Playday, or offer school grounds to your local community for their events

Councillors/MPs

  • Find out what's happening in your constituency via the Playday website
  • Contact play providers in your area and ask them how you can support them
  • Support Play England's manifesto for children's play
  • Community groups
  • Join forces with local play services to support play and hold an event

Media

  • Cover local events
  • Play England can provide: feature ideas; logos and photos; local contacts and spokespeople

National organisations

  • Sign up as an official campaign supporter and you'll feature on the Playday website
  • Spread the message and get others involved
