About the Adventure Playground
A truly unique space for child-led play in Richmond upon Thames
With towering wooden structures, wide open spaces, and endless opportunities for exploration, the Adventure Playground is a place where children take the lead. Here they can build, climb, experiment, get muddy — and learn fantastic life lessons along the way.
Every year, thousands of children come through our gates to play freely, form new friendships, and discover what makes them tick.
A Space Just for Children
No adults allowed inside the playground
To give children a sense of independence and ownership, adults aren’t permitted inside the Adventure Playground during sessions. This helps children:
-
Make their own choices
-
Explore freely
-
Connect with others outside of school or family settings
Our trained playworkers supervise the space, support play, and offer fun, creative activities each day.

We welcome children with a wide range of needs and want to make sure every child has what they need to thrive.

Testimonials
Praise for Marble Hill Playcentres
“I like that the children can have some independence supported by friendly staff and that there are options for different levels.”
“A safe secure place for me to go with multiple children where I know they can enjoy child-led play with set-ups and activities that change all the time to offer a great variety, and I can keep an eye on everyone whilst still being able to chat to other adults.”
“Freedom for the children to explore, independent play, range of activities, friendly staff in the 1oclock club”
“Meeting other parents whose children have SEND !”
“Being able to leave my child to play independently and make new friends “
“For the children, physical activity, sunlight and fresh air, and some time away from screens. Also, low-pressure opportunities to socialise with other children.”
“People understand if your child is having a meltdown – no one judges you”
“Being outside! We don’t have a garden so the outdoors he loves! So many toys and water play too!”
“Plenty for my son to do while I can supervise from a distance and have a chat to other parents.”
