LearnPlay Foundation

LearnPlay Foundation (LPF) is a not-for-profit organisation with social, educational and charitable objectives which aims to support all members of the community and in particular, those from disadvantaged backgrounds and areas.

We offer services in Filming, Game development, Creative & Design and Digital & Social media as well as activities and programmes (both accredited and non accredited) that engage, raise aspirations, develop soft skills, educate & engender community cohesion.

Pathways Covered

Education, training and employment

Overview

LearnPlay Foundation was established in 2007. Initially, our brief was focused on social objectives – ‘to engage the hard to reach into education, communality and personal development’. But now, with successful media, programming and promotional task forces, LearnPlay Foundation has grown into so much more. Film production, editing, computer game programming, design, distribution, direct marketing, promotional activities and implementation; from an army on the street to strategies in the boardroom, LearnPlay holds a strong commercial and civic portfolio.
