Eccleshill Adventure Playground is the first of its kind in Bradford. A truly self build adventure playground and a flag ship project.
The site is open access for children 5 to 15 to come and go as they please. The site is staffed by qualified playworkers, youth workers and dedicated community members. The projects focus is enabling children and young people to achieve their full potential. The projects view is that through play and playwork children and young people can experience a range of opportunities and activities of their own volition from which they will gain positive affirmation benefiting them in the wider aspects of their lives.
Eccleshill Adventure Playground is a place where all children can feel, free and safe to play, to chat, to hang out and to involve themselves in the range of play opportunities on offer. In addition to this children and young people can participate to their fullest ability in developing the physical site and the service the project provides. This is a project dedicated to the play needs of children and young people and the wider needs of the local communities. A provision that in time will be owned, developed and managed by the local communities. Run for the people by the people.
