The CSV Play Rangers have been out there engaging 4200 children and young people, delivering outdoor play in Hartcliffe, Withywood, Knowle West, Stockwood, Knowle, St. Pauls, as well as at the Bristol College Green Playday event. The team have cooked on fires, created dens, organised playful Olympics and made medals, make rope swings and ladders. We have decorated, opened and playfully used the new Park POD in Withywood park.

The CSV Out2Play team have also delivered Forest Skills days for the CAF Family Bonding project and the HAWKES Stepping Stones summer program, all of which were really good fun even in the rain. The Stepping Stones program ended with a film showing of the summer 2012 project at the Knowle West Media centre which was a great way to celebrate the end of the summer.

CSV Out2Play have supported and had help from many volunteers over the summer: 20 adults and 10 young people gave between 10 and 60 hrs of their own time to be involved in summer eventsWe thank you for your hard work and appreciated the time you have given to CSV and the children we work with.
