The Youth@Play programme is built on recognition that play is the most effective mechanism for engaging with children and young people aged up to 13 years within youth settings.

Level 2 and Level 3 training ‘Playwork in a youth work setting’ is now available for full and part-time youth workers in statutory and voluntary settings across all Council areas. The programme recognises the value of enhancing the play offer in youth settings, particularly for the younger members.
