“Streets for play, streets for freedom” by @aliceferguson.bsky.social & @timrgill.bsky.social makes the case for a "child lens" on transport policy. Time to prioritise those most impacted yet least considered in planning our streets: Children. Read more here: playingout.net/take-action/...

Ladies Mile is a totally unnecessary road cutting across Bristol’s biggest public greenspace - The Downs - making it unsafe for kids. It was closed to cars for the day yesterday and what a change! Let’s make this permanent. @edplowden.bsky.social @robbryher.bsky.social @bristol247.bsky.social

“We need to move beyond talking about play areas and towards talking about playful neighbourhoods. The best playgrounds are completely wasted if children can’t safely get to them”. Thank you @timrgill.bsky.social

“We have an opportunity here to make a real difference. Restoring play to children’s lives is something Government can DO”. 👏👏👏@tomhayesmp.bsky.social

Followed by Paul Lindley saying “Children’s time, space and permission to play, both in school and out, have all been decimated”.

Impassioned speech from @ndironsmp.bsky.social opening the Play Commission launch, setting out the importance of play and the impact of its loss. “Is it any wonder children are so unhappy in this country?”

“Children don’t play out anymore” says ex-PM who, during covid, stopped children from playing outside whilst encouraging adults to go to pubs. Somewhere in this latest weird rant there’s a nugget of truth about children’s health - but let’s talk about the issue seriously.

A happy Monday post. Photos just landed in our inbox from a play street in Epsom. The active play! The intergenerational play! The weather!! Play streets show just how much children and adults want to use the space on their doorsteps - and how much joy happens when they can.
