Sensory play areas
Animal encounters (with supervision)
Sports challenges and games
From creativity to physical activity, every corner of the park is transformed into a space for imagination and energy.
Community and Impact
PlayDay is organised in collaboration with Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust, highlighting community values and shared purpose. Sponsors such as SEFE and NBC Universal support the event, helping make the experience free and accessible.
The event also draws attention to the importance of safe, inclusive play spaces in densely built environments. Coram’s Fields acts as a model of what dedicated communal space can achieve.
