What are communities saying about 1000 Play Streets
"The ultimate benefit is to build a better community, so we all know each other and can look out for each other. If anyone needs a hand they know where to go to, and it’s about building long lasting friendships as well."
Lisa Moore
Play Street Host & Local Resident
"What I love about Play Streets is the community spirit and the interaction that kids have with each other, their neighbours, people they’re growing up with, and what adults have as a connection with others as well."
Rachel Turner
Parent and Local Resident
"I’ve certainly met a lot more people including those who I didn’t realise live two-doors away, as you don’t see them typically …it’s been good to bring the community together."
Warren Evert
Parent and Local Resident
"Seeing the kids out on the street, riding their bikes, scooters, playing tennis, it’s really great to see."
