What’s happening in Norwich?
Residents in Norwich can apply to close their roads for street play from one off up to weekly using a single application (there is a small fee). There’s a group of residents lobbying them to improve the policy, you can connect with them on their facebook group.
Lumi has a great list of resources available to residents for closing street, for play and parties, with links and helpful info.
There are a number of streets that have held regular playing out sessions in Norwich – you can read a report from 2013 in the Eastern Daily Press.
If you’d like to contact other people organising play streets in Norwich you can join the Norwich Play Street Facebook Group.
