The Triangle Adventure Playground is an oasis of green space offering the young people (aged up to 18) of its sprawling local estates a safe space in which to develop physically, emotionally and socially. The playground encourages children of varying abilities to extend themselves by experiment and exploration, all under the watchful eyes of its trained, professional play-workers. Our service is especially valued by parents and carers because after school and in the holidays the Triangle is, for many children, the only place to play or ‘hang out’ other than the streets, which enables their parents or carers to work or study in the knowledge that they are safe and secure. Free of charge, and with its open access policy, we are especially proud that our playground is a happy, harmonious place for young people representative of the full range of London’s multi-cultural society. Activities include free adventure play, construction, gardening, cooking, sport, art and crafts, environmental activities, music, dance and drama. The playground holds an historic place in the development of play theory being the oldest adventure playground site in London. It was founded in 1957 and now provides challenging activities for over 1,000 young people.

Its mission is to provide world-leading treatment and care for each child and every family. Evelina London is an award-winning building that was specifically designed around the needs of children and their families: themed floors, a conservatory, rooms with views, sunlight and fresh air, make their hospital stay as comfortable as possible. Every donation you make goes towards improving care for sick children. This can be spent on everything from life-saving research and the latest medical equipment, to the little things that help make a stay in hospital less scary for young patients.

With themed floors, a conservatory, rooms with views, sunlight and fresh air, Evelina London Children's Hospital was designed around the needs of children and their families. It's a seven-storey glass-fronted building, featuring a four-storey conservatory and dramatic views of Lambeth Palace and Archbishop’s Park. Inpatients are on the upper levels of the building, so children staying in hospital enjoy the best views. They also overlook the conservatory, the social heart of the building, housing a gallery and performance space and the hospital school. The building is themed around the natural world, from the sea at ground level to the sky at the top. It has visual symbols to make getting around easier and themed artwork on the floor of each level. Every donation we receive goes towards improving care for sick children. From life-saving research and the latest medical equipment, to the little things that help make the hospital less scary for our youngest patients.
