Playday

WHAT'S PLAYDAY?

Playday is the annual celebration of children's right to play.

4 August 2010 was Playday - the national day for play.

On Playday thousands of children, young people and communities got out to play at over 860 locally organised events across the UK.

As well as a celebration of children's right to play, Playday is also a campaign that raises awareness about some serious issues affecting children's play.

Our place
The Playday 2010 campaign is Our place. Our place puts children at the heart of our communities, and asks everyone, young and old, to help create better places for all of us to live and play.
