    • The Next Play Ranger / Outdoor Setting meeting – 26th May Thank You! I wanted to take a moment to say a massive thank you to everyone who joined our recent informal chat about outdoor play. It was truly wonderful to hear your insights, challenges, and triumphs. From discussing appropriate rope for ziplines (not climbing rope!) to sharing our struggles with the recent Scottish weather (and the weather that's yet to come), it was great to see how passionate we all are about promoting play in outdoor settings. Thank you also to those who shared links and resources during the chat. For anyone who missed them, here they are again: • Animated Knots: https://www.animatedknots.com/ • The Play Ranger group and forum: https://engage.smartplaynetwork.org/groups/the-play-ranger-group/ • #Playchat on 26th April @ 10:30am: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZwrduyhpjIrGtFvqj9inA1qj5abbUqa_cmz • All Weather Play Training in Edinburgh on 23rd March: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/all-weather-play-tickets-557784818407 Also - The fabulous pictures of kids playing in Tyneside from the 70's I believe: https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/history/gallery/tyneside-children-playing-outdoors-10-24678051 We're keen to grow this meeting and host another soon, so please do keep an eye out for a discussion thread on https://engage.smartplaynetwork.org.

I have scheduled the next online meeting for 11:00, Fri 26th May: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0qceivrjojGdxslywWnYxZ6dwlojTvfET2 Thanks again for your time, ideas, and enthusiasm.

    • Play Rangers Networking Meeting Smart Play Network would like to organise an online networking meeting for anyone involved in a Play Ranger group.  It would be an opportunity to have an informal chat with others who do a similar work, allowing you to be able to share any challenges or ask questions.  We have found this to be such a benefit in the past and keen to re-start the group again.  Please let us know any days or times that work best so we can factor this into our planning.

    • Outdoor community play spaces Hi Play Ranger Group I'm working with a group who are keen to visit other outdoor community play spaces in Scotland as they have found this to be a rewarding experience, sharing ideas, good practice and discussing challenges. I have been able to sign post the group to a few settings that I know of, does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks Sharon
