Celebrating 40 years of supporting children, young people and families of White City and surrounding communities

The Venture

The Venture’s foundations are built on grass roots playwork and our adventure playground and indoor play space has been the focal point of community life for the last 40 years.  It has provided a safe and consistent source of connection and support for thousands of families and has been a place for children, young people and their families to play, relax, learn and participate.
