We are one planet, one people,
one family

Play for Progress promotes a societal model that:

• Improves emotional health, awareness, and development

• Promotes community connection and expression

• Improves accessibility and integration

• Challenges societal views on people seeking refuge

Play for Progress’s mission is to ensure that while seeking the right to refuge, young displaced people have

• the community support they need to survive

• the safe space they need to heal

• and the stability to thrive

We aim to provide young people who engage with us with the tools, resources, and people they need to develop the skills that will best help them to establish and deepen their foundation of wellbeing. We firmly believe that the arts, play, and creative therapies are best placed to accomplish this.

Our strategy for 2023-25 focuses on consolidation of programme delivery as well as identifying future opportunities to deepen and scale impact alongside our community of young people.

We deliver two primary strands of work: Creative Programmes (group-based community classes and projects) and Support Services (1-1 bespoke help). Learn more about them here.
