Play Space is an after school creative programme, designed for children to learn about healthy lifestyles and a healthy environment  through games, dance and sport.  It incorporates creative learning where children have the opportunity to create menus, aprons and bags, as well as grow food and make healthy meals.  The project seeks to promote a greater understanding of how a healthy diet and exercise can contribute to overall well-being and empowers children to make their own informed choices.

The project is run by artists who are experienced in working with children.  They use various art forms, for example drawing, movement, dance, music, animation and sculpture to explore concepts of healthy eating, environmental awareness and healthy active lifestyles primarily for children aged from 7 to 11 (Key Stage 2) and those between 11 and 14 (Key Stage 3).
 

The project runs in primary and secondary schools, and community centres across Westminster
