Social Economy Awards

Play Resource was delighted to receive a Highly Commended Award in the Best Social Economy in Northern Ireland category, amidst tough competition, at the recent Social Economy Awards.  The award was for recognition of our hard work in developing the organisation and its services that support the community. The prestigious event was organised by the Social Economy Network.

The achievement was welcomed by one of our longest standing supporters, the Arts Council of Northern Ireland. Roisin McDonough, Chief Executive of the Arts Council, said: “This is a fantastic achievement for Play Resource, an organisation which for many years has been dedicated to providing arts resources and programmes that benefit the whole community.

“Not only does the service help schools and community groups, but it also provides industry with an eco-friendly and socially responsible way to reuse their waste materials.  Congratulations to Anne and her team on this well-deserved award.”
