Welcome
St Matthews Children’s Action Group was set up in 1989 by local residents and the tenants association, as a temporary and direct response to the lack of play space and out of school provision for children and families in St Matthews.
Our work is around the Playwork Principles and that play is innate, biological, psychological and a social necessity. We also work alongside the Every Child Matters Agenda; being healthy, staying safe, enjoying & achieving, making a positive contribution and economic well-being.
