What is Playing Out?
- Outdoor child-led free play on the street and around the neighbourhood. The term implies a degree of independence and is usually unsupervised or semi-supervised.
- The name of this particular Community Interest Company which aims to promote and encourage a return to street play through resident-led safe, direct action.
- An after-school street play session where car access is restricted and residents take turns to 'steward'.
Ingredients for a Playing Out session:
- 1 residential street
- 1 organiser
- 1 helper
- 4 or more stewards
- neighbours and children
- this website
- Lots of enthusiasm!
