Playright is a charity which carries out the mission of promoting children play for 30 years as we “Value Children, Value Play”.

For over 35 years, Playright Children’s Play Association has been promoting children’s right to play in Hong Kong. We are driven by our vision to “Build Hong Kong as a Playful City”. The basic principles behind the Playful City Framework are that every child is recognized as a valued, respected citizen, and every child is engaged to express or participate in decisions to play. Through our programmes, services, and advocacy work, we seek societal commitment to meet the play needs of every child at policy, planning and provision level. Come join our team of playworkers, hospital play specialists, and playground consultants.
