Calling all Play Providers

Burngreave Play Development in association with BCAF
Children's and Young People's Group are compiling a directory of groups and organisations in Burngreave who run activities for children and young people on a regular or occasional basis.

If you run any kind of activity for children or young people aged 0-20 contact Pauline Hirst, Play Development Officer, on 07866 998 498 if you want to be in the directory.

We are keen to get to know all the groups in the area so that we can offer support and training opportunities to everyone. A copy of the directory will be sent to everyone who is represented in it.
