Excited to launch our new children's and young people's Party packages! Why not hire our indoor and enclosed outdoor space to celebrate with friends and family? Our play experts can also organise and facilitate the whole party if you want them to! Full details and prices here:

Please spread the word, as income generated helps our charity be more financially sustainable.

New outdoor playgroup at Manor Farm Park - hosted by the Friends
01/09/2023
Just a quick note to say that I'm no longer running Little Leaf play sessions at Masefield. Helen has launched her own group at the gardens- please check them out on instagram! I'll be focusing on working with schools to develop their OPAL playtimes- making sure more and more children get amazing playtimes every single day! Very excited to welcome Amy The Parakeet onlineto the OPAL team too. Kaleigh x

Tired yet full of hope and inspiration after spending the week in Glasgow for the International Play Association conference. To be in a room with 550 other people from around the world who all care so passionately about the child’s right to play is really quite special. 💛

The skies may be grey but there will be fun and laughter at Masefield tomorrow. We'll be planting sunflower seeds, doing a spot of gardening and lots of playing! All topped off with toasted apples (as long as the rain holds off!) Book here... www.bookwhen.com/littleleaf
