CHILDREN'S play organisations in Nottingham are being urged to work together to "protect children" from the cuts.

Tomorrow a new Play Strategy for the city will be unveiled by the Nottingham Play Partnership, which is made up of different city organisations.

It will outline the future for play in the city and the sort of opportunities children need.

Anyone with an interest in play including schools, nurseries, community groups and volunteers can attend the launch tomorrow from 10.30am to 1pm at Playworks in Alfred Street North, St Ann's.

Liz Asher, senior manager at Playworks and chairman of the Nottingham Play Partnership, said: "I'm calling on everyone involved with play in Nottingham to come together and make sure we continue to build on our achievements."
