A place for fun!

The local council tendered for the project and required a mix of equipment and natural play areas. We included grass areas and Robinia equipment within our design to meet the specifications.

Thrilling Cableways and Active Play: Encouraging Learning Through Outdoor Fun

Children love the thrill of cableways and will queue for them time and time again – children learn how to co-operate with each other while playing and with lots of free space within the play area children will enjoy lots of movement and activity.

Outdoor play is critical for children of all ages – children learn as they play and playing can help improve balance, co-ordination and help with language and communication skills – the equipment installed in Freshford ensures all ages will enjoy the fun!
