Partners in Play provides a range of activities for children in Lanarkshire with additional support needs. They aim to help the children and families they work with to have access to the same social and recreational opportunities and activities as everyone else.  There are very few facilities within a reasonable travel distance and Partners in Play has a vision to create a high quality Adventure Play area for children and young people in or near Lanarkshire. It will be open to any members of the public but will also be designed to allow access to all (bringing together disabled and non-disabled children and young people).

This survey is targeted at users of such a place, and those who care about them. We are keen to find out whether you support the idea and, if so, whether you would use it and what you think it should look like.
Your responses are completely confidential and will help PiP create a detailed plan to make this a reality. If you have any questions about this survey, please contact douglas@communityenterprise.org.uk or telephone 01506 862227. Thank you for your participation. The survey will be open over the next few weeks.

The survey can be accessed on line by clicking this link  https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/PiP_Adventure_Play_Survey.  Paper copies can be handed into the Partners in Play office or to any of the staff.  We are also holding an open family meeting to share ideas.   That will be on 14th November - put it in your diary and more details will be coming soon.
