In 2012 The Role Play Haven was invited to take part in Ashley Banjo's Secret Street Crew which is a documentary reality show that was broadcasting on Sky1[3][4]

In 2013 The Role Play Haven came under threat by government hospital closure[5][6] where their venue was based. The Role Play Haven teamed up with local communities and hospitals to campaign to block the government's plan. They won.

During COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, The Role Play Haven closed all branches and reported financial trouble and possible permanent branch closures. A Crowdfunding was launched to raise money to help maintain the organisation during the lockdown and reopen[7]
