We are delighted to launch Getting it Right for Play - our updated play space assessment toolkit today for #Playday2025

Shaped by extensive engagement with families, communities, and organisations and informed by recent legislation, our updated guidance supports the implementation of our world-leading framework for children’s right to play in Scotland.

Local authorities are key to upholding every child’s right to play, and they can do this by using the toolkit to engage with children and communities in the assessment and development of play spaces.

Packed with useful tips and relevant case studies, our resource gives step-by-step advice and tools to assess and improve play spaces.
