To mark National Play Day, we have launched a new inclusive play design standard.

We have worked together with our long term partner Whizz Kidz to create the standard, which will act as a guide for designing inclusive and accessible play areas that meet the needs of all children, including those with physical disabilities or neurodivergent conditions.

We hope to have 125 of these new, inclusive play areas installed at our new developments by the end of next year, and over the next few years all our new play areas will meet this standard.

Play areas provide an essential space for physical and social development in young people. This is why we are committed to designing and creating play spaces that are inclusive and accessible for all children to enjoy to the full.
