This Easter holiday PATH worked with East End Homes and the respected Street Artist, Stik, to create artwork on the shutters of the shops on the parade in Wager Street. The working week was colourful and powerful. It could have gone very badly wrong……

  • http://t.co/abOeRvx of course I do not mean to imply Toynbee to blame. It's that all Cameron's doing. #

Introducing a filmmaker from the states to Glamis Adventure Playgorund allows me to see just how wonderful it is to watch children playing freely. I wonder about how the footage will impact on the people who will get to view it and the people who filmed it.

Thinking about how and why we think play is important. Is it to breed a brainier generation of children? A better work force? A better community? Or is it something bigger than the sum of all of these that we don’t yet understand?
