VSCYF Forum – Inclusive Play & Youth Spaces 

Join the Voluntary Sector Children & Youth Forum (VSCYF) for an interactive session at The Brady Arts and Community Centre between 11:30am -13:00pm exploring how we can create more inclusive, welcoming and accessible play and youth spaces for children and young people across Tower Hamlets.

Together we’ll discuss:

• Why play matters for wellbeing and development

• What gender-inclusive design means in practice

• Barriers to participation and belonging

• How spaces can become more inclusive, safe and welcoming for all young people

The session will include:

• Spotlight presentations and shared learning
• Interactive table discussions
• Opportunities to identify challenges, good practice and practical solutions
• Networking and partnership building

Discussion themes will include:

• Participation & barriers

• Designing inclusive spaces

• Activities & programming

• Safety & belonging

We will also explore:

•  What can organisations do differently?
• What support is needed across the sector?
• What partnerships and actions should be taken forward in Tower Hamlets?

We welcome organisations working with children and young people, girls and young women, SEND communities, youth provision, sports, play and community wellbeing.

Come and be part of the conversation shaping more inclusive play and youth spaces across the borough.
