"Make-Do Play are a sprinkle of magic. They rock up with a wonderful bundle of loose parts and resources with incredible play value, all of which enhances the imagination and play experience for children. Hours of fun, memories in the making. Experienced and knowledgeable Playworkers who understand intervention and facilitation." Haringey Play Association
Kerri and Dom's work is invaluable for the wide ranging needs of the children who attend our events. 80% of the children that attend have Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities and the parents/carers have commented on how inclusive their play sessions are - allowing children to explore the range of materials on offer and sparking their imagination. Kerri and Dom have an incredible energy with little interference in the children's play but supporting them if needed. We love Make-Do-Play!" The Together Space
“ Make-Do Play are professional in delivering very engaging child led activities, that spark the imaginations of young children. They provided a wonderful environment which was received with high acclaim by local families. We saw many children living their best lives!“ Well Street Common Festival

The Together Space
The Together Space is a supportive place for learning disabled and neurotypical children, young people and their families to comfortably socialise, learn, play and relax together, without stigma or awkwardness. We have really enjoyed providing play, woodwork and art activities at a number of their award winning events in Walthamstow.
"The activities from Make-Do Play were perfect. My eldest doesn't especially like adult led outcome oriented activities/art/crafts and just likes to be free to create and experiment. The woodwork mixed with art materials was excellent and really allowed the girls to get into their flow uninterrupted and create what they wanted to. They also had fun exploring the other items that were set out for them to do as they liked with. I was really impressed by all the ideas of things to play with." (parent)

Haringey Play Association
In the 2023 Easter and Summer Holidays we partnered with Haringey Play Association to offer free play sessions for 6-12 year olds on an estate in South Tottenham. This was part of Haringey Council's HAF (Holiday Activities and Food) provision, with hot lunches provided for those entitled to Free School Meals.
"This is the best play session ever!" (child)
“Thank you so much for today. [my daughter] didn’t want to leave. She was telling my mum about her new friends” (parent)
