How to Book
There is no need to book. Children can arrive at the playground to play, though they need to be registered if they haven't registered before on the Glamis website.
All children who use Glamis Adventure Playground need to register. We record this information to
- ensure their safety while in our care
- know who to contact if the need arises
- demonstrate to our funders that we are meeting their requirements.

The children design menus, cook, serve, eat and drink at our Glamis Café. Our meals are healthy, nutritious and meatless. The children get involved with growing fresh fruits and veg in out adjacent allotment.

Can parents attend?
Parents can attend. However, we ask that only one parent per family attend. In some cases, it would be reasonable to ask that perhaps more than one child from more than 1 family can be accompanied by one adult. As we only have a certain capacity, the more adults onsite mean less service users (children).
Nutritional education
It is hard for local families on low incomes to ensure that their children have fresh fruit and vegetables, they need. They eat too much unhealthy food. A lot of outdoor play means even hungrier children relying on sugary packed lunches to keep them fuelled-up for play. We decided to launch the Grow - Cook - Eat initiative.
The children grow, cook, and eat and drink is available at our Glamis Café.
