Overview

This webinar will look into the various stages of managing a playground project, with an emphasis on the practical issues facing owner / operators (particularly in the Town and Parish sector). Starting from the initial need, community consultation, area design, supplier choice, through project management, installation, safety standards to repairs and maintenance. The discussion will take into account topics such as material choice (steel, wood, plastics), environmental implications and current social issues affecting play area design (such as inclusivity).

This webinar will last around 1.5 hours with a full half hour of the session available for Q&A. You are encouraged to enter into an open dialogue and bring any specific issues you / your council are facing for discussion during the Q&A. Any unanswered queries from the session will be followed up afterwards.
