A Play Strategy for Harlow
2007 - 20012 (Draft)
Children’s play and recreation are
of vital importance in Harlow. We want play to be inspiring and
enjoyable, promoting achievement and a healthy lifestyle, whilst
being safe and inclusive.
Play and recreation must be
promoted and celebrated for all children and young people. It can
be formal and structured as well as informal and
unstructured.
Harlow Play Partnership has reconsigned this and the strategy
outlines how in the next 5 years Harlow's Children and Young
People's Strategic Partnership will achieve its vision by working
in partnership with statutory agencies, schools and the voluntary
sector to create exciting opportunities for play that are
sustainable. We have consulted widely with children, young people
and parents and this will continue to drive our
strategy forward in the coming years.
The strategy applies to the children and young people under 18
years in Harlow and specifically looks at play opportunities that
are fully inclusive and are available completely free of
charge.
In order to ensure that the
strategy is right we would like your views. If you would like to
