UK - Ruabon - Boy plays in tunnel at risk averse playground

Boy climbs through tunnels in risk averse playground called The Land on Plas Madoc Estate, Ruabon, Wrexham, Wales. A young kid explores the tunnels and tyres in a way that parents are nowadays scared to allow. But here in this council play park, children are encouraged to experiment with risk aversion, to enjoy a wilder form of play and interaction with others - the opposite of online relations and over safe childhoods. From the chapter entitled 'Playing with Fire' from the book 'Risk Wise: Nine Everyday Adventures' by Polly Morland (Allianz, The School of Life, Profile Books, 2015).
