Play Rangers
The ELPA Play Rangers support play in community spaces near children’s homes or schools, such as local streets, parks and greenspaces. Play Rangers build confidence in communities so that more children spend more time playing outdoors.
Our projects emphasise fun and friendship, supporting children to play in the ways they choose, in an inclusive environment. The team bring along plenty of ‘loose parts’ to play with as well as making use of whatever is there. Children’s ideas lead the project.

Children with additional support needs often face multiple barriers to playing outdoors. We are delighted to work with Can Do to deliver our inclusive PlayCan sessions. Supported by Thrive Outdoors, PlayCan is one of five inclusive play projects highlighted in this lovely film.
