Notice Information

Notice Title

Playground Upgrade

Notice Description

Great Braxted Parish Council is aware that careful preparation and planning are essential to the long-term success of its play space. The location is fixed so the Council is seeking a contractor who can plan around all the other features of the village play area to produce a playground fit for purpose. The new playground will need to engage all local children, be inclusive and accessible, be safe to use and ensure that children's physical, emotional and educational needs are catered for when upgrading, whilst ensuring the investment of funds have been put to a worthwhile purpose. Great Braxted Parish Council manages one playground in Great Braxted and plans to upgrade this dedicated play area: Great Braxted village has a small playground in the middle of the village. The 20+ year current equipment (which will be removed by external source) is looking somewhat tired and more than a little 'unloved', with out-dated equipment, that for some time has required replacement/upgrade so that it can be enjoyed by residents for generations to come. Within the play area there is an outdoor adult gym, and this should be taken into consideration when planning to ensure all British Standards and regulations are adhered too. A play space which appeals to children of a broad range of ages and abilities is an essential requirement of the project. https://www.google.com/maps/@51.7960253,0.6980476,17z https://www.google.com/maps/@51.7949302,0.698505,3a,75y,215.11h,88.66t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sGL72BHvX89qXfLQxPS0rfQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 Design brief: There is growing evidence that children spend less time enjoying outdoor play than at any point in our modern history. At the same time, under current pandemic conditions, outdoor play is one of the few options available as a leisure activity for children. The new play area will need to inform the creation of outdoor play space for years to come, doing justice to children's endless capacity for adventure and imagination, their need for exercise and social interaction and, above all, to their innate sense of fun. Places where children play can be important social places, not just for children and young people, but also for parents, carers and the wider community. The play space will need to be of high-quality Timber and good design to attract children and families and become a valued part of the local environment. Safety is often a barrier to encouraging outdoor play, so we want play space that helps children play safely and to encourage parents to let their children play outside, allowing children to learn about managing risk. Inclusivity, creative play and ensuring the playground can be enjoyed by children of different age groups, with a diversity of needs has been a key consideration when choosing the playground equipment. Apply to the Parish Clerk in writing or via email.
