Full job description

Smart Play Network is a dynamic, forward thinking play organisation and charity supporting and delivering a range of play services in Scotland.

Play Rangers are our dedicated staff and volunteers encouraging children to play out in their own streets and parks. We facilitate play outside in local communities by providing resources and ideas to encourage exciting, active and socially bonding play opportunities for 5 to 13 year olds

Our Play Rangers team facilitate free, child-led sessions in community outdoor spaces, encouraging children to decide what they want to do from the range of resources that we bring with us in our Play Ranger van to the natural resources available in the outdoors.

We are not a childcare service, but offer parents reassurance and children an environment where they can feel comfortable to join in, utilise their local community spaces, meet new people and have fun.
