Wheelchair-accessible roundabouts and swings, elevated walkways allowing a child with profound and multiple problems to enjoy the excitement of 'climbing' trees, bucket seats with safety harnesses to enable them to experience the thrill of whizzing down a zip wire, multi-sensory rooms to stimulate and relax, with specially-trained staff to provide help and support - these are just a few of the things the Adventure Playground has on offer.

The Adventure Playground is a lifeline to many families who have a child of any age with a special need. It is a place where their child is understood, and can experience all the fun and freedom of adventure play in a safe, stimulating and caring environment, where they are free to be themselves, and where they are measured by what they CAN achieve, not limited by what they can't.

Each year over 13,600 visits are made to the Adventure Playground. With as little as 5% of the £300,000 the Playground needs each year coming from local authority grants, the support of the local community is absolutely crucial if it is to continue to offer so many children and adults with a special need the opportunities for play which most people take for granted.
