Children need Play to Imagine
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is
the World's most adopted Treaty, the UK has signed
it. Article 31 of the Convention states:

States Parties recognize the right of the child to rest and
leisure, to engage in play and recreational activities
appropriate to the age of the child and to participate
freely in cultural life and the arts.
2. States Parties shall respect and promote the right of the
child to participate fully in cultural and artistic life and
shall encourage the provision of appropriate and equal
opportunities for cultural, artistic, recreational and
leisure activity.

Donations
always welcome
We don't need a great deal to
do our work but the truth is, if you want us
to be effective, we have to ask you for a
small donation. (In fact, we've
checked and we actually have spent under £250
in the past year to bring you: this site, Fair
Play for Children News, added Publications and
Library items. updated Facebook and Twitter,
made Freedom of Information requests, written
to Ministers, MPs, Councils etc - and reached
many groups and people. Imagine what we
could do with £2500! Volunteer
effort = worth at least £24,000 in the same
period btw.)
