  • About Us

    Project Play provides displaced children in northern France with safe spaces to play, learn and grow. Our team of dedicated volunteers delivers play sessions for children living in informal camps and temporary accommodation centres. Promoting resilience, self-worth and a strong identity is at the core of our mission. Our sessions target core developmental skills for children aged 1-18 using a combination of group games, sports, music, creative tasks and formal learning. The children are given a chance to grow their understanding of who they are, what they enjoy and what they can bring to the world. We target skills that are age specific, bearing in mind that many of these children have large gaps in their development. For this reason, we tailor our activities to the individual needs of each child, in order to find the most effective outlet for them.
