PLAY SCHEMES 

Our schemes promote independence, creativity and risk taking to nurture children to learn, grow and most of all, have tonnes of fun! SCPA offers FREE play projects both after school and during school holidays. The schemes are drop in and children over the age of 5 are welcome to attend without parents or carers. Children under 5 are also welcome, but must be accompanied by a guardian.

​

SCPA is Ofsted registered and our play workers receive comprehensive training including health and safety,  paediatric first aid, autism and disability awareness. SCPA believes in equal opportunities for all and do our utmost to help all children to play and learn.
