Our innovative, community-led solution provides a coworking space with a supervised play area, ensuring parents can work while their children are in a safe environment…

Why is there no Clarity Score for Work + Play yet?

Our dataset does not yet contain the detailed filing history needed to score Work + Play. An unrated profile is a gap in our assessment, not a negative judgement about the charity. The register facts and available annual-return disclosures above remain useful. Payment never influences a rating. How scoring works

What should you check before donating to Work + Play?

  • Match the registered name and number to the appeal. A real charity number can be copied by someone impersonating the organisation.
  • Open the current register entry to check status, contact details and available accounts. This profile reflects a dated extract.
  • Read the charity’s annual report for its work and results. An unrated profile means we lack a full assessment; it is not a negative rating.
