Paul Bonel, director of the SPRITO Playwork Unit, said, 'For the first time we have a centre in every Government office region in England. Together we are going to make a huge impact on the quality and quantity of playwork education, training and qualifications. Highly skilled playworkers can provide top-notch play provision. This is such a crucial time for playwork to have a strategic role in provision for children and young people.'
