We are looking to receive a review of the existing play equipment and, where possible, retain good items to be incorporated in a new design, with the supply and installation of appropriate children's play equipment.

We are looking for a supplier to create a children's play area that incorporates inclusive elements and provides a safe and stimulating environment for children to play and learn. 

The new play area will replace/refurbish the existing one (which will be removed as part of the contract) and meet all current regulations and best practices.

Faringdon Town Council Oakwood Park Play Area

This project is for the design and build of a play area which will replace the existing facility at Oakwood Park, also known as Ash Close Play Area. The site is a relatively small area serving the immediate community, surrounded on three sides by housing. There are currently several challenges for the Council in terms of general maintenance and the presence of large trees across the site. These include bird droppings on seating and equipment, root system damage to existing and any new surfacing and weeds and moss growing onto the bonded mulch. As outlined in Appendix 3, careful consideration to the new design, surfacing and equipment is required to mitigate these, while delivering an accessible and inviting play area that will be primarily used by younger families. All existing equipment, surfacing, play steel rail fencing (front of site) and any bases are to be removed and disposed of. The project is fully funded; however, the Council may wish to reduce the final budget depending on the submitted designs and other community priorities.
