Welcome to the
Annual Impact Report
for 2014 Our new Annual Impact Report aims to show the work of the charity and it's impact on
the children in Islington. Although we aim to fulfil our contracts with excellence, it
means nothing without asking what difference our work actually makes to the
children. As this is the first year of our new combined annual report and impact report,
we have included information for the years 2012 - 2014.

Message from the chair
Annual Impact Report 2014 | 01
Healthy Holidays Martin Luther King
Treehouse Project
I’m pleased to report on a number of significant achievements made by Islington Play Association (IPA) during this period. In April 2013 IPA took over the running of Islington's six voluntary-sector adventure playgrounds - Toffee Park, Lumpy Hill, Martin Luther King, Timbuktu, Crumbles Castle and Hayward. All those involved worked incredibly hard to ensure that there was a smooth transition and there was limited disruption in the play opportunities for Islington’s children. The trustees would like to welcome these new staff to IPA and take this opportunity to express our thanks for the dedication and commitment that they have shown. IPA is keen to share its expertise with others and staff have been involved in delivering a range of training courses to other play providers. IPA continues to enable and support partners to offer creative, inclusive, challenging and fun play opportunities for all children in Islington. A key part of this was the delivery of our ‘Finding Nature Through Play' project at Islington’s twelve adventure playgrounds. Paradise Park Children’s Centre continues to offer excellent, play-focused services for children under 5 years and their families to help them thrive and make the most of life's opportunities. Staff have worked hard to develop the use of outdoor space at the centre which contains an adventure playground specifically designed for under-fives. I want to take this opportunity to thank IPA’s board of trustees for their contribution during 2013 - 2014. The trustees would like to thank IPA’s staff and volunteers for their continued hard work. Your commitment to playfulness continues to create, improve, promote and preserve opportunities for the children of Islington to play. We would particularly like to acknowledge and recognise the leadership shown by senior managers and their skills and commitment over what has been a challenging time. Lorna Lewis Chair of Trustees

We were partners of the
review that saw continued
protection of the funding
for play due to the
recognition of the
importance of free play for
the children of Islington,
despite the council having
to reduce spending by
£127 million.
IPA persuaded the London
borough of Islington to
sign a deed of dedication
ensuring that all of the
adventure playground
land in Islington can never
be sold, built on or used
for anything except
children's play.
Did you know?
Islington only has 6% of its space
available for play compared to Camden,
with 18%, and Hackney, with 42%.
Whilst continuing to
deliver Paradise Park
Children’s Centre, IPA
delivered many projects
across all 12 adventure
playground sites, adding
value to and building on
existing services and
provision.

Supporting
adventure playgrounds
and other play
providers
IPA successfully bid to run
half of the adventure play
services in Islington and
continued to deliver
creative and innovative
play projects across the
borough, including cooking
healthy lunches with and
for the children, running a
play library of fantastic
resources and supporting
volunteers to get involved
with play.
We expanded our social
media impact using
Twitter, Facebook, blogs
and regular news emails.
We also published a book:
“Slow Down Building in
Progress: How to support
children to build dens and
tree houses in their play”
and presented at five
conferences, including
leading on the Risk It!
conference.
Sharing knowledge,
experience and good
practice in play
Our staff numbered
38 in 2012 and
increased to 80 by
2014.
This period has
seen IPA move into
the 'large' charity
category as defined
by NCVO.
In 2013 our
turnover increased
by over a third. 5 4

Outcomes for
2012 - 2014
In addition to the adventure playground and children's centre contracts, IPA has created and delivered a number of individual programs and
projects since 2012, which have brought in £250,000:
Greenspace projects Finding Nature Through Play Growing & Playing Healthy Holidays Play, Past, Present and in Perpetuity Social Action Fund Support to VCS groups Supporting Impact and Change Play Library Training for Lambeth Treehouse Project Other training, grants and projects
Islington Play Association’s presence online has seen steady
growth over the years. As of November 2014, the charity has
590+ followers on Twitter, 150+ likes on Facebook and
regularly exceeds 40,000 hits a month to its website.
Since Islington Play Association took over the adventure playgrounds
contract in April 2013, our playgrounds are open an average of five
additional hours per week in the term time each, and an average of 15
hours per week in the school holidays. That’s an additional 2000 hours of
adventure play per year. The attendance rate at our adventure
playgrounds has also increased by 26%.

Campaigning for children’s right to play
06 | Annual Impact Report 2014
A little boy aged six attends our
adventure playground. He is a
selective mute which means he
does not talk to anyone who he
does not trust, he doesn’t even
talk to his teachers at the school.
After attending for some time he
slowly built up the confidence to
gesture to adults and other
children if he wanted something.
Over time he started to tap
adults and gesture them down to
his level where he will now
whisper in their ear. His voice is
actually really deep and
surprising to listen to.
By spending time at the playground
he developed confidence, self-
esteem and now feels that he can
trust the staff enough to talk to
them. This is a huge step for this
young person who now talks to a
handful of children on the
playground and to all of the staff
that work here.

Campaigning for children’s right to play
One Saturday she glittered the
playground, she went around
doing fairy dust and even though
the other kids got quite fed up that
there was no glitter left. I can only
imagine she had a world of her
own that was fairy led.
She often makes art for people
with different mediums: she may
use bark or sand or as she did one
day, used old teabags and made
ageing maps. She leads on her own
projects. She may be a great artist
one day I like to believe, but in the
meantime needs this space to
express herself - where else will
she do what she does? She needs
to explore all the natural
opportunities that this space
provides and she is an amazing
child because she finds all the
amazing things herself.
Dawn Jennings,
Playground Co-ordinator
Child A has been attending one of
our adventure playgrounds for 3 - 4
years. She is really artistic and
really loves nature and animals,
and is our resident vet. She can be
quite cold sometimes, her parents
have alcohol issues and have in the
past come and shouted at staff
onsite.
When I first started here her back
could go up at any little thing. She
would create and storm off or just
not engage with you. She is still
quite feisty and sometimes a bit
cold for her age, but she has an
amazing artistic temperament that
she can express at the playground.
This is normally expressed in messy
play with mud, paint or clay, really
anything that she can get her
hands on.

Securing and protecting play provision
Annual Impact Report 2014 | 07
Securing and protecting
play provision In 2012 IPA set itself some ambitious goals which included the “specific aim to promote and secure legal protection for the land currently occupied by Islington’s adventure playgrounds, so that the future use of these sites for free, open-access adventure playgrounds will be assured”. After years of lobbying and campaigning IPA was successful in persuading Islington Council to protect the areas of land known as the adventure playgrounds in perpetuity through a deed of dedication signed with Fields in Trust, meaning that Islington Council have designated 12 sites as play spaces and QE11 Jubilee fields.
Islington brings in legal measure to protect adventure playgrounds: http://bit.ly/cypnow-ipa1
This example of the charity spearheading a successful campaign to protect play for the children of Islington was recognised by the Executive of the council writing to “Express its thanks to the IPA for (your) work on securing this land for adventure play”. IPA has already been approached by many areas across the country who are looking to do something similar and we hope that our good practice and example will be shared and replicated for children across the United Kingdom.
Only 12% of Islington homes have gardens.

Delivering play and childcare services
Delivering play and childcare services
Children are sometimes perceived in a similar way as natural spaces, as wild things which need to be controlled and managed, but just as natural habitats often need to be left to their own devises to flourish, so do children.
From 2010 till 2013 IPA delivered its Finding Nature through Play project which was funded by Natural England through Access to Nature, as part of the Big Lottery Fund's Changing Spaces programme. Over 3,000 children and their playworkers enhanced 11 adventure playgrounds and a public park by digging ponds, planting and making insect hotels, earth and turf sculptures, and clay ovens. By making these changes children have provided themselves and the children of the future with hundreds of loose parts to play with.
The most important outcome of this project is that thousands of children are now able to play freely in beautiful places that they have created themselves. The Finding Nature through Play project fed into Tim Gill’s 2011 Sowing the Seeds report which found that regular contact with the natural world: Boosted children’s motor
development skills Helped children to manage
their moods Improved children’s
concentration in class
Leon, aged 9, explained how he managed his emotions when he was at one of the Islington adventure playgrounds.
“Everyone’s always following me if I’m angry and asks me
about things. I can’t say then. I feel like hitting someone. I
want to be on my own until later. If I’m in the bit where the
trees are, at the back and no-one comes, that’s all I want.
I’ll talk to you after.”
Over 3,000 children took part in our
Finding Nature Through Play project.

Delivering Play and childcare services
Paradise Park Children’s Centre
Our reach to
low income
households for
2013 - 2014 is
92%, up from
77% in 2012 -
2013.
Paradise Park Children’s Centre offers a wide range of services for children and families in the Holloway area. IPA is proud to be part of the network of provision funded by Islington to support families living in challenging circumstances. It is very important to IPA that the resources in the borough for children are open to as many children as possible – not just those in nurseries or childcare but for those who come to free services. This is why we share our garden and our café with families and children in the area. The Children’s Centre currently has two areas identified as outstanding by Ofsted: 1. The quality of care, guidance and support offered to families,
including those in target groups: ‘Some families in the area face significant barriers and live with very complex problems. However, the response from the centre is sensitive, yet professional, and increases the life chances of families.’ 2. The extent to which equality is promoted and diversity celebrated, illegal or unlawful discrimination is tackled: ‘The promotion of equality at the centre is exemplary. Inclusive practice for all families, such as those with children who have additional needs, is strongly promoted and leads to improved outcomes for them. ‘ Paradise Park Children’s Centre is the first ever under fives provision to be awarded the Quality in Play Award in recognition of our excellent play focused approach across the whole service. Ofsted have said ‘Children are happy and safe at the setting and they enjoy warm
relationships with staff and each other.’ ’All practitioners spend their time appropriately engaging and playing
with the children.’ ‘The outside garden area is a well resourced and exciting learning
environment.’ Paradise Park has been praised for its use of Forest school methods by Ofsted and in the Healthy Children’s Centres assessment due to our trips to Barnsbury woods and our all weather approach onsite which sees the doors of the nursery always open allowing children free choice to go outside as they want to. The centre is part of IPA’s children and young peoples strategy. Bringing excellent play opportunities to all ages.

Supporting adventure playgrounds and other play providers
12 | Annual Impact Report 2014
Supporting adventure
playgrounds and other play
providers A boy, 8 years old, diagnosed ADHD, extremely articulate and with a million ideas about who he could be each day. He often disappears into the woodland space as a warrior, sometimes with painted face and an axe to grind with another tribe, and always with some homemade weaponry. When I visit, I am shown the weapons made, told how they were constructed and given a glimpse of the imaginary world he co-creates with the environment, friends and playworkers at the adventure playground. I have witnessed enactments of dramatic slayings with triumphant displays of victory, with willing victims laying at his feet. This is a great example of how an adventure playground can benefit children. Together they are able to create moments which draw on all aspects of life, they are able to act out situations spontaneously, responding and developing unscripted stories which unfold before and between them, of which they are both in control and out of control. These moments require an ability to be highly responsive and adaptable to the ever changing, unpredictable circumstances that the adventure and actors within it present.
Their experiences are not driven by a wish to learn or accrue skills but by fun and freedom, and the adventure taking place right now, when they pose the question ‘what if’ e.g. I become a warrior or make a weapon, and by feelings, which are so enjoyable, that even in moments of being slain, make them want more and endeavour to create more possibilities to continue playing. An adventure playground differs greatly from other environments where children spend most of their time. Onsite children can rearrange the world, make connections with other children and adults in ways that could not be planned with structure or direction and in ways that benefit the individual, the other children, the culture of the playground and of course the community. To have a space which satisfies the imagination, energy and creativity of children also benefits families as this young boy’s nan often says,
‘’I don’t know what we’d do without Crumbles, he’d drive us up the wall.’’
In January 2013, 11.42% of 5-12 year
olds were using adventure
playgrounds, and a year later in
January 2014 it had risen to 12.65% -
that’s almost 500 extra children.

of the Islington population is under 20.
We have been picking up bread,
pastries and fresh organic vegetables
from local shops - Farm Direct and the
De Beauvoir Deli – and taking them to
the adventure playgrounds where
children have been cooking healthy
snacks and meals with them.
This work is just a small part of our
Healthy Holidays project which is

Millions of tons of food are wasted
every year by the UK food industry.
At the same time, there are so many
Londoners who cannot afford to feed
themselves and their families properly.
Islington Play Association has been
working with Plan Z Heroes whose
mission is to support and inspire food
businesses who are willing to donate
their surplus food to local charities.
Islington Play Association believes in two main areas for interventions:
Healthy eating including encouraging a connection with the natural, growing world
Physical activity through play

Sharing knowledge, experience and good practice in play
Over the last three years at IPA, one of my
roles has been as Quality in Play Mentor,
where I have sought to embed the Quality in
Play assurance scheme into what we do as
an organisation.
Developed by London Play and now
managed by Play England, it is a nationally
recognised quality assurance scheme that
demonstrates the play quality and robust
governance of a setting or organisation.
Rachel Mathers
Adventure Playground Manager
Boys and girls attendance rates on
our adventure playgrounds have
evened up, with more girls coming
to play.
In 2012 Paradise Park Children’s
Centre was the first ever under fives
provision to achieve Quality in Play
accreditation from Play England.
All Islington Play Association sites are registered with Ofsted.
Toffee Park, Timbuktu, Hayward
and Lumpy Hill Adventure
Playgrounds have all attained
Quality in Play accreditation.

Wendy Jeeves, Services Director
I began working for Islington Play Association in 2009 to deliver the Tree House Project, a
three year project funded by the Big Lottery. On adventure playgrounds, the project worked
to return ownership of the sites to the children through giving them the tools, materials and
the freedom to create their own play structures. Adventure playgrounds, throughout time
have been recognised by their child built structures but the tradition was disappearing in a
climate of parental fear, health and safety demands and playworkers’ fear of litigation.
Ironically the attempt to ensure the safety of children by removing all risks was having a
detrimental effect on children’s development of skills to ensure their own safety and on the
variety of experiences available to children. The Tree House Project worked closely with The
Royal Society for Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) who had a similar approach from their
own scheme ‘Learning about Safety by Experiencing Risk’ (LASER). The Tree House Project
challenged ideas about children’s capabilities, particular in the area of managing risk,
increased playworkers’ confidence in supporting building activity and worked throughout
the borough to change attitudes towards children’s play.
Whilst returning the tradition and practice of children building back to Adventure Play was a
key outcome of the project, increasing access to quality play experiences for all children was
equally important. This drive saw the project work in playgrounds, on estates, in parks and
in schools. The project worked with playworkers, tenants associations, parks staff and
teachers as well as over 2,000 children.
The project won an International Play Association ‘Right to Play’ Award and IPA published a
‘How to’ manual to encourage anyone interested in supporting children to use tools and
build dens and tree houses in their play.
This practice continues to be a focus for my work within the organisation as does improving
play practice on all sites in order to give children in Islington the broadest range of quality
play experiences and as such, the best chances for healthy and positive development.
In my current role as Services Director I have continued to support progress in changing
attitudes towards children experiencing and learning to assess risk in play. The Tree House
Project had a profound effect and contributed to a change in policy in Islington from Risk
Assessment to Risk Benefit Assessment for play activities.
