Milton Keynes Play Association (MKPA) is appealing for help so that it can reach its 50th anniversary next year.
To celebrate achieving the milestone, the charity has launched a campaign to raise £50,000 by its 50th anniversary.
Donations will be put towards keeping this long-standing charity running, creating craft boxes for the children of Milton Keynes and hosting essential training sessions to keep children safe.
Wendy Usher, Volunteer Acting Chief Executive, said: "Your support through this difficult period will allow us to continue to support the families of MK, helping to grow the future generation of adults for another 50 years!"
Since 1971, Milton Keynes Play Association has delighted generations of MK residents with fun-filled play sessions - creating memories of playing on bouncy castles, face painting, crafting under the shade of a gazebo and sliding down our water slip-and-slide.
MKPA also runs the Scrapstore which takes in more than 60 tonnes of industrial waste each year - that would've otherwise been sent to landfill - which is repurposed for arts and crafts, and creative play. This service has continued throughout lockdown, on a no-contact basis, where families order a craft box by email, provide a suggested donation, and collect their box from the Scrapstore car park at Kiln Farm.
MKPA has launched a Just Giving page to help reach its target, and you can access it here.
