Hornimans aims:
• Improve the quality of life for all children attending promoting physical, mental and spiritual well-being.
• Provide, maintain a safe, adventurous play environment staffed by qualified playworkers and volunteers who create a warm, welcoming environment that enhances the development of our children.
• Provide a varied, fun, stimulating range of activities, off-site trips that meet the social, cultural, educational, recreational needs of the children.
• Seek and value children's involvement and input and encourage them and their parents to take an active role in the running of the playground.

• Promote equality, inclusion and project a positive image of children (e.g. those with disabilities, behavioural problems and ethnic minority groups)
