PLAY@ Lower Drayton Farm is delighted to be named a finalist for the 2025 Staffordshire Chambers of Commerce Business Awards in the Hospitality, Leisure and Tourism category, sponsored by iZero.

The award recognises businesses delivering exceptional service, customer satisfaction, innovation, and positive contributions to their communities and the environment.

Since launching during the pandemic, PLAY@ has grown from a small outdoor play space into a multi-award-winning family attraction. Operated by the Bower family, it offers an immersive mix of fun, education, and sustainability—welcoming families, school groups, and home educators to experience life on a working farm.

With indoor and outdoor play zones, hands-on animal encounters, and a year-round programme of seasonal events like PYO Pumpkins and the Tulip Festival, the farm has become a regional favourite. Its education offering is aligned with the national STEM curriculum, and its outreach work spans school visits, regional shows, and community programmes.

PLAY@ is also committed to sustainability, with significant investment in energy-efficient infrastructure and environmentally responsible practices, all working toward a Net Zero goal by 2040.
