Big Play – Building Trust Through Play
Saturday 12 September
10am-1pm
Join Emma Zangs (Movement & Communication Coach) and Katie Severson (Play Therapist) for a playful, creative workshop exploring how we can build trust, strengthen communication and work better together as a community.
Through a series of accessible, collaborative activities, we’ll use play, movement and creative experimentation to explore how we communicate, make decisions, listen to one another and navigate working together.
You don’t need to be a dancer, artist or particularly “playful” to take part! The activities are designed to be inclusive and accessible, with plenty of opportunities to participate in ways that feel comfortable for you.
Together, we’ll explore:
👂 Communication & Listening – noticing different ways we communicate and how we respond to one another.
🤝 Trust & Collaboration – exploring what helps us work together, make decisions and navigate challenges.
🎲 Playing Together – creative activities that encourage collaboration, experimentation and connection.
💭 Play & Relationships – looking at how playful approaches can help build understanding, resilience and stronger relationships.
📝 Shared Agreements – using ideas and reflections from the session to develop some practical principles for how we might share space and work together in the future.
The workshop is an opportunity to step away from the day-to-day, try something different and think together about ways we can wort together as a community.
Come along, have a play, and explore what we can learn from how we play together.
Attendance is free and all are welcome -
