Places for Play Study Tours: Stirling »

  • 28-30 April 2009 (a few places left)
  • 26-28 May 2009
  • 9-11 June 2009

An unparalled opportunity to learn about the theory and practice informing Stirling's approach to the design and maintenance of spaces for play.

Comments from the tours.
You will see that we have much to live up to on the next set of tours.

I feel honoured to have come - refreshed, valued, invigorated and full of inspiration. Many thanks.

Absolutely loved all visits. Great to talk to others in a spontaneous way and at the sites. Lots of knowledge shared. 'Experiencing' the sites cannot be stressed enough.

Fantastic! Feel really inspired. It was really useful to see sites in such varied rural and urban areas.

It was really interesting hearing about their people's work. From the very first session I found myself rethinking principles that I had not reflected on for some time.

Truly inspiring and very helpful.

Site visits were very informative. Interesting to see how ideas put into practice and to meet the various parties involved in the process.

The facilitators made the study tour enjoyable because of their obvious enthusiasm for what they were doing . Also very knowledgeable.

Brilliant, inspiring, stimulating. The tour really helped to inject enthusiasm for an area of work that has always felt unfulfilling but without apparent alternatives that can work in this country. Thanks for a well spent three days.
