Playground design to Attract More Visitors
The original natural playground, installed during the ‘Playbuilder’ era, had served the visitor centre well for many years. However, as time passed, the playground aged and the equipment was beyond its servicable life, leading to a significant decline in both visitors and revenue. Recognising the need for change, Leeds City Council decided to upgrade the playground by adding new playground equipment. The Council initiated a tender process to design an innovative play area that would cater to all ages and be inclusive of all abilities.
Nestled within a beautiful woodland setting, protected by Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs), the project had to carefully consider the location of tree roots to maximise the space while adhering to playground safety standards. After finalising the designs and confirming delivery and installation timelines, Leeds City Council gave us the green light to proceed. With a clear objective to create a standout new play area to attract more footfall, ultimately boosting revenue. With this in mind we began preparations to rejuvenate the Garden Centre.
