OPEN ACCESS PLAY SCEME WORKING WELL IN OSCOTT


The Birmingham Play Care Network Open Access Scheme is working well in Oscott. The Scheme located on Burford Road playings field for 2 weeks From August 16th attracted 50 youngsters to it yesterday
The aim of the scheme which runs from 10am to 4 pm it to encourage local youngsters to get off the street and to come and play in a safe environment. Staff looking after the youngster help devise traditional games and use the open space available. On the basis of what I saw yesterday fun was being had by all.
Although the scheme is working very well it is a shame that the container used to store equipment has been located so close to the boundary of the field and there have been some complaints about parking problems. I would ask anyone dropping off youngsters to take care how they park. For more details please ring.
