Q. Do you have an Environmental Policy?

A. Yes. Alongside our belief that every child has a right to play we are committed to doing our part to ensure the future of our planet.

 Q. How safe is your equipment?

A. As members of RoSPA we take playground safety seriously. However we also believe it is important for children to experience challenges and evaluate risk. We are encouraged by the movement toward risk benefit assessment and will take into account the principles of ensuring a balance when creating or developing a play ground or outdoor classroom. All our equipment is designed and manufactured to meet (and often exceed) the requirements of European Safety Standard EN 1176. Where appropriate equipment is independently tested and carries TUV certification for compliance with EN 1176 and EN 1177.

Q. Do you carry out the installation?

All installations are carried out in accordance with Association of Playground Industries guidelines. We will always leave the site clean and tidy and take into account the safety of children in the area during the school day.

Q. Can you help us with fundraising?

A. There are many different options for sourcing funding for the playground development. We can advise on sources of grants and funding providers and can assist in your fundraising efforts by producing images and plans if required. If initially funds are only available for part of your plans we are able to design phased schemes to get the development going and to encourage future fundraising.

Q. How do we maintain the equipment once we have it installed?

A. Products are supplied with information and advice to allow you to carry out regular maintenance of your equipment once it has been installed. Although our equipment is relatively low maintenance, all play equipment should be inspected on a regular basis in accordance with BS EN 1176. In addition to routine daily visual and monthly operational inspections carried out by you, a fuller main annual inspection should also be carried out. Our team are RPII qualified and we offer an annual inspection service if required. Please contact us for a quotation. Our warranty excludes normal wear and tear, vandalism and accidental damage.
