    Play Adventures in Leeds

    The Leeds City Council Play Adventures in Leeds consultation toolkit is specific to developing playgrounds and the process needed to be able to carry this out with community engagement and the involvement and participation of children and young people.

     
    It has been developed with the Playbuilder Programme in mind but is not exclusive to this programme but in particular for development of open access community play spaces.
     
    When, why and where would you use the consultation toolkit and for what purpose…
     
    When looking to develop a playground for children, young people and the community it is essential that children and young people and the community are central to this process.
     
    The Play adventures in Leeds toolkit takes you through the why, where and who to consult when developing community play spaces along with useful documents and mechanisms to carry out the consultation.
