Play Gloucestershire: Play 2 Nurture report

Play Nurture Plus is a joint project between Play Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire Healthy Lifestyles and Living, Gloucestershire’s Integrated Care Partnership and Active Gloucestershire.

It aims to embed the principles of Play Gloucestershire’s award-winning Play Nurture programme in schools.

Developed in 2005, The Playwork Principles1 were designed to establish an ethical and professional framework for playwork. Playwork is a profession that began in Britain after World War II, as bombed building sites or streets became areas where children and young people would gather to play amongst the rubble. Adults were introduced to help with supervision rather than shutting the children out (and spoiling all the fun).
