Customer Objectives

Fawley were looking to develop their outdoor play area as they had some old equipment that needed removing and replacing with new equipment. They liked the idea of one large item of play equipment, such as a Trim Trail, but were open to suggestions. They were also concerned about their slippery decked area.

Our Solution

We incorporated a Double Tower (with appropriate safer surfacing) as this provides significant play value for the pupils for many years to come. Exchanging the old and worn train for a Linked Tower Trail and Just Like Grass surfacing created a low-level area for social and imaginative play. Refurbishing the existing decked stage area to include blue Play Grass makes it less slippery and visually more appealing.
