Fantastic to be at @LondonLegacy yesterday with all these amazing people working on gender equity, better urban design and proper engagement with women and girls. Sharing experience and best practice and finding out what's happening across the sector.

What might play sufficiency for girls look like?
We're part of this Women In Property seminar on 'Women’s Impact on Designing Spaces', talking about what happens when women aren't involved... It's today, it's online and it's free to attend. womeninproperty.org.uk/events/2024/wo…
A few people have been asking us about inclusive skate parks so here’s a reminder of the work we did with Wheelscape, based on research from Sweden by @whitearkitekter. Read all about it here: makespaceforgirls.co.uk/blog/skate-par…
We posted before about this funded PhD opportunity into digital co-design for urban spaces with teenage girls but the person appointed has had to pull out. So if you - or anyone else - wants to do this very important and ground-breaking work, please apply! bcu.ac.uk/built-environm…
Fascinating statistics from research with teenagers in Ireland by Dr Carol Barron, Dublin City University. There's lots to learn from this but perhaps the most striking is that it’s not just teenage girls who aren't happy with what is currently being provided in parks.
It’s not just the design of spaces which make a difference for teenage girls, the facilities themselves matter too. Great to see @Proludic designing equipment which isn’t just for the default male – with lower & narrower bars for example. Works various groups- inclusive design.
It's not just children who want more nature time! In our @ParksforLondon research, 16-25yo (who visit nature <others) said time in nature should be part of their curricula. And childhood experiences w/#urbangreenspace influence their current nature habits. theguardian.com/environment/20…
Inclusive spaces don't have to be big or expensive - see this lovely example from Christchurch NZ. And it's a hit with both teenagers and young families too. Just love this.
“As a society we nag kids to get off their phones into the real world, but won’t make room for them… and are then surprised when children don’t flourish” “…teenagers loitering in public spaces are met with adult suspicion and hostility”. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
York! Get involved - submit to run an event as part of this month long programme getting teen girls into the park and trying new things, expanding horizons, and knowing they are welcome! Deadline 31/3/24

Some of our greatest impact happens where people have seen our message and research and then put it into practice themselves. @Fr_RowntreePark in York engaged with teen girls & created a month long programme of events to create a welcoming park!

"Safer Parks for Women and Girls Guidance" makespaceforgirls.co.uk/resources/safe… One for #localgov everywhere
It’s our third birthday this week & in the last year we were delighted to be a part of the team which created guidance on ‘Safer Parks for Women and Girls’ alongside @greenflagawards, The University of Leeds, West Yorkshire Combined Authority, and Keep Britain Tidy.
It’s our 3rd birthday this week & we want to share more of our Parkwatch project: Most of what is built for teenagers is mostly skateparks, MUGAs & BMX tracks. But what you helped us discover was that 92% of MUGAs users were male. 84% on skateparks and BMX tracks were male.

How would you feel about ‘buddy benches’ popping up where you live? 💡 These benches have been installed in Staffordshire with a sign that tells passers by that anyone sitting on them would be happy to chat. 📸 Credit – Essex is United

Great to see the @JoinUsMovePlay team sharing their knowledge & experience of the Make Space For Girls inspired playgrounds with @ActiveCdale #ActiveBradford
I hosted a visit with @sofiearmitage & @l_connelly1981 from @ActiveCdale & @HalifaxOppTrust at Windhill Wild Park today. We shared learning around girls and greenspaces. Thanks for visiting and hope we can visit you over the hill next time.
And what an impact they’ve had! Take a read, you may even spot our ‘Make Space for Girls’ in Rowntree Park in the report!
