Smart Play Network is the national organisation supporting play services and play providers in Scotland. The organisation was established in 2011 out of a pursuit to inspire and support communities to play in Scotland. We are a diverse team looking to share our knowledge of play to support organisations, projects and individuals, with the objective of helping make Scotland the ideal place for all children to grow up.
