About Us:

Stretch & Play started life as a limited company and registered charity where we received awards and support from various funders including the EU Programme for Peace and Reconciliation (Peace II); UnLtd – the Foundation for Social Entrepreneurs; Invest Northern Ireland Social Entrepreneurship Programme and Community Foundation for Northern Ireland’s Difference Makers Programme to train Facilitators and deliver bespoke classes for groups such as Schools, Youth Centres, Women's Centres, Health Trusts and more...

Elements of this programme were rolled out to over 250 Key Stage One classes and more than 10,000 pupils across Northern Ireland each year from 2008 until 2015.

Thanks to the events of 2020, Stretch & Play Facilitator Training is now available online which means you can learn our techniques no matter where you are in the world! However, since 2023, people have been yearning to train in person again, hence this course in Glasgow. As a student on this in-person course you will also get a year's access to the online training so you can learn even more and dip back in when you need to.

One of our favourite things about this training is that you are NOT tied into a franchise or regular payments and you do NOT have to call your classes Stretch & Play (unless you want to!) Instead, you can use these tools to build your own children’s movement and mindfulness business or add to your existing offerings.
