We want to make this summer the best it can possibly be for our city’s children and young people, and organising a Playing Out activity in one of our parks and green spaces, or in your street or cul-de-sac, is a great way of bringing everyone together.
To run a Playing Out activity, residents must apply to the council for a temporary street closure, lasting for between one and three hours, via www.wolverhampton.gov.uk/licences/lets-play-out. Applicants will need to give the council at least eight weeks’ notice. Therefore, the council is encouraging anyone who wants to close their street for a Playing Out activity to look to do so towards the end of the summer holidays – and, in the meantime, to organise social activities in local parks and green spaces during the first few weeks of the school break.
