Ever wonder what the real benefits of exceptional playground design are? It may seem like swings and roundabouts, but a recent PhD study shows that playgrounds are pivotal in the development of children’s fundamental movement skills (FMS). These skills serve as the foundation for physical activity, leading to improved health, better cognitive function and reduced risks of obesity and inactivity. Join our team to explore how you can leverage these findings to create better play spaces.
Are you ready to elevate your housing development for its residents? This CPD session is the go-to for Housing Developers looking to deliver high-quality play spaces that serve the needs of new and existing communities. Because putting play at the heart of a development improves wellbeing, longevitiy, and creates desirability of a place. Discover the theory of play, best practices, and more with our toolkit for delivering exceptional play spaces today.
Designing playgrounds for climate resilience involves creating spaces that can adapt to the changing needs of children, communities, and the environment over time. In this session, we will explore how moving away from a “throwaway culture” can foster truly long-lasting play areas. By prioritising durable, sustainable materials and flexible and considered design principles, playgrounds can serve as enduring and futureproofed community hubs.
A recent report shows that 90% of teenage play provision is dominated by boys, leaving girls feeling unsafe and unwelcome in these spaces. It’s clear that the way we design teenage spaces needs to change. That’s where KORE comes in. KORE aims to reimagine public spaces as vibrant hubs of inclusivity, empowerment and community engagement, putting the design in the hands of its end users. Learn how this community-first approach is reshaping play today.Â
Technology is often seen as a barrier to keeping kids active, with screen time on the rise and outdoor play in decline. However, technology has a huge capacity for engagement which can be utilised to get more people active, build better habits and encourage inclusive community spaces. This sesssion will explore real case studies and highlight the data driven world of interactive play, showcasing tools to track return on investment and community engagement.
At Jupiter Play & Leisure, we believe everyone has the right to play. But without fully accessible and inclusive designs, too many people are being left out of current play provisions. Why? Because inclusion has seemingly become less of a necessity and more of a box ticking exercise. This CPD-accredited session highlights key theories of inclusive play that help foster exceptional community spaces for everyone.
