Project Background:
This is a unique scheme that was created in collabora on with the local school, Swan Paul Partnership and the
designers of Jupiter Play. Barnardo’s led the consulta on with current and former pupils of Staplegrove Primary
School who created the vision for the project.
Next Steps:
The Jupiter Play product designer worked together with Louise Baugh, Landscape Architect from Swan Paul and FHS
to create a huge pirate ship feature packed with play value and mee ng every safety and quality standard. Jupiter
Play o1en work closely with Landscape Architects to help realise a vision. In this case it was important to use
sustainable materials and enhance the landscape with natural features as well as cap va ng children with a larger
than life bespoke feature.
As with all projects, communica on is king and the success of this bespoke play project is due to the ongoing
consulta on at every step of this project, from the product development to working closely with the contractor
throughout the installa on process.
Outcome:
“This is a wonderful new play area which truly reflects the wishes of local children.
This flagship play area shows just how much can be achieved when the community works together and the children
of Staplegrove Primary School should be jus fiably proud.”
