The charity’s objects are:
(1) To enhance the development and education of children of Torbay through play
(2) To advance the education of the public regarding the importance of children’s play
We passionately believe that:
• All children should have the freedom, time, space, permission and opportunity to PLAY throughout their childhood and teenage years
• All residential neighbourhoods should be
child-friendly places where children and young people can regularly play outside
• All disabled young people should be able to realise their aspirations and their right to be in an inclusive community that supports their play. Play Torbay supports a range of community work projects to help understand and address the issues that affect children, their families and their communities. We work in partnership with Friends groups, schools and community groups, social care, specialist services, including links with the police and specialist children and family intervention services, We work closely with the Local Authority and the Torbay Community Development Trust contributing to the strategic development of services at a local level. We raise funds to provide services for children and young people across the Bay FREE of charge.
