Play Strategy Discussion Forum
About Les Compton
Les Compton is Deputy Head of Young Peoples Services for Bristol
City Council where he has led the development of the Council's Play
Policy 'Making Play Matter' (2003) and Strategy 'Playing for Real'
(2004) in partnership with the voluntary and community sector. The
strategy is the blue print for the development of children and young
people's play in the city and is cross cutting. Les has secured
signup from a wide range of stakeholders and therefore the strategy
is generally recognised as a model of good practice.
Prior to joining BCC in 2002, Les has worked for a number of local
authorities in a variety of play, youth and community work roles
for some 25 years.
