The Springfield Project is intent on improving the quantity and quality of opportunities for play for the whole family. As part of the Child Friendly Neighbourhood initiative, we run a series of events that are free to the community and offer new experiences for families, such as the Family Fun Day, just to come and play and create ‘on a shoestring’ in order to role model simple family play; or the King’s Coronation Garden Party which saw live music, fete games, free snacks, bouncy castles, and face painting.

Creative Families Festival
The Creative Families Festival is our annual arts festival in which a variety of artists and musicians come together to deliver performances and workshops for children aged 0-11 and their families. Creative Families Festival occurs every year over October Half Term. Over the years we have had Toni’s Tots Drama, cooking workshops, weaving workshops, the Doodling Poet, a loose parts playground, storytelling, drumming workshops and more! This year’s festival will take place on 29 October 2024, 11am–4pm.
Santa Comes to Springfield
Santa Comes to Springfield is a lovely annual event with arts, crafts, games and festive music for the local children we work with from the Sparkhill area, and each child receives a present from Santa. Keep an eye on this page for the 2024 dates and details!
