How do you Ensure Safety in your Playground Designs?

Safety is our top priority. We adhere to rigorous safety standards and guidelines, ensuring that our playgrounds meet or exceed all relevant regulations.

We use high-quality materials, incorporate safe surfacing, and design play equipment with consideration for user safety.

Can you Customise Playground Designs to Suit Specific Requirements?

We understand that each project is unique. We collaborate closely with our clients to understand their specific requirements, preferences, and the needs of the children who will use the playground.

Our designs are highly customisable to create a space that meets your project’s objectives.

What is the Design Process for an Inclusive Playground Project?

Our design process typically involves the following steps:

• Initial consultation to understand your goals and needs.
• Site assessment and analysis to evaluate the existing space.
• Concept development and design proposal presentation.
• Feedback and revisions based on client input.
• Final design plans, including detailed drawings and 3D renderings.
• Implementation and construction phase.

Do you Work with Schools, Local Authorities, and Community Groups?

We collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders, including schools, local authorities, community organisations, and other relevant groups.

Our goal is to create playgrounds that are integrated into the community and serve the needs of all involved.

How Long Does it Take to Complete a Playground Project?

The timeline for each project can vary depending on its complexity and size.

After the initial consultation, we can provide you with a more accurate estimate of the project timeline.

Rest assured, we work efficiently to bring your inclusive playground to life as quickly as possible.
