2 September 2026

Professor Helen Dodd joined UK Community Foundations’ roundtable to help refine the learning framework of Free to Play UK, the Foundation’s new five-year initiative.

Free to Play is a UK-wide partnership supporting outdoor, child-led and adventurous play. The initiative has an initial programme value of more than £9.3 million and brings together 20 community foundations, with local programmes expected to open in spring 2027.
