Description:

What is a Play Ranger? Play Rangers are specialist outdoor play workers who support children and young people to play in their local parks and green spaces. We provide games and activities that encourage positive behaviour, child led play and an engagement with their surroundings. Play Rangers work with children in their free time, after school, holidays and community events as well as being involved in school sessions. What do we do? We play team games and sports to encourage co-operation and physical activity including football, rounders, skipping, bulldog and many more. Play Rangers have also developed adventurous activities, facilitating safe risk taking via den-building, cook-outs and making rope swings. Arts and crafts promote creativity and free expression. Mask making, kites, lanterns, dance and performance are always popular. We enable children to follow their imagination using fantasy, role play, props and dressing up.
