BPCN appeals for volunteers

Working towards a goal, making a difference, achieving success whilst also having a positive influence on many people’s lives every single day. These are a tiny selection of notions that Birmingham Playcare Network adopts in its bid to improve and stimulate the play experience for young children in the UK’s Second City.

Accepting a way of life, or previously cemented values that seem extremely unlikely to change can be a very easy thing to do, but at Birmingham Playcare Network we pride ourselves on making a difference, not only to the lives of children, but to their parents, the local community and actually all of our staff members. A close knit team is crucial to maintain the passion and genuine enthusiasm for what many people would see as a job, but we see as an opportunity, a cause, and a family.

Creativity with materials, strategies and ideas makes up a huge part of the BPCN identity. These qualities and visions are reflected and demonstrated greatly through The Scrapstore Birmingham. This is our very own initiative to ensure that the materials and offcuts that local businesses may deem useless or waste, are anything but. This also allows us to show others that, with ambition and drive, something that could’ve easily ended up in a rubbish bin or buried deep in landfill can be reformed and reinvented and consequently stimulate a satisfying play experience for a child.
