Playful cities are happy and healthy

Its the International Day of Play on 11th June and we celebrated tonight with at a fantastic event in Shellharbour. We heard from a lineup of engaging speakers who reminded us of how essential play is for childhood development. Play comes in many forms and we must make decisions that protect and promote childrens right to play freely in our public spaces.
Thanks HCA for such an engaging event!
