Healthwatch Sheffield funded Pitsmoor Adventure Playground to undertake engagement with their users to understand their health and social care needs. Around 20 children participated.
The conversation coved the following topics
- Senses
- Eating healthily
- Looking after their teeth
- Being happy and staying active
The project concluded that:
- Giving the children opportunities for active play helps them to think positively about this in terms of its relationship to happiness and socialising;
- They were able to talk to the children about keeping healthy, staying active, and eating well through our wider play activities.
- They can provide important information to the children about ways to keep well (like brushing your teeth) alongside creative exercises to keep their attention;
