Dursely Parish Council was looking to add a climbing element to their existing playground.  Following a public consultation and discussions with local school children, they identified that the Kingshill House Playground was not catering for much climbing play values and also accomodating for junior aged children.

The Meadows is a petting farm in Caerphilly Wales which opened in 2020.  It is a great outdoor family attraction with a cafe and restaurant.  They also offer educational days out for schools, so it can get very busy at peak times. They were looking to install a natural playground to cater to junior-aged children. 

Robert contacted ESP Play Parks following a flood during the winter of 2019 which destroyed their existing play area. Although the existing site worked well and was very popular they highlighted that it needs more modern and exciting equipment moving forward. Following our site survey it was shown that the current play surfacing was holding water in the play area with poor drainage.

At Holker Estate Holiday Parks they were looking to add some new play equipment as well as an outdoor Gym Facility.  They have never had an outdoor Gym Facility at their holiday parks before and have been requested by their customers.  Having an outdoor space where people can do their warm-up exercises before going for a run is what people are looking for when they are booking a weekend or week away in the Lake District.

We were contacted after being recommended from another housing developer we have worked with and soon sched-uled in a site meeting with the Development Manager to discuss the new playground. The site already had play equipment which you will see from the before images below. It was in very much need of attention and the local children did not use the area due to the equipment being old and dangerous. Crabtree Developments wanted to create an attractive space which would not only be usable for children but also adults. They wanted to lean on the side of being physically active to improve health and fitness. The area also needed to be a place where the local community can go to and socialise with each other and the potential to hold community summer events.
