About Us

Baltic Street Adventure Playground (BSAP) is a free, child-led adventure playground in Glasgow’s East End. We’re a democratic space where children make decisions about what happens each day through play, exploration, and creativity. We provide free meals, snacks, and a welcoming community environment that supports freedom, confidence, and wellbeing.

The Role

You’ll play an important part in ensuring the project and playground run safely and smoothly while supporting children to explore, make choices, and lead their own play.
