Children's Playgrounds
Children's playgrounds play a valuable role in outdoor
recreation, providing children and young people with an area to
relax, explore, meet friends and play.
Harrogate Borough Council manages and maintains 55 children's
playgrounds, all of which are open all year round.

Standards
All new children's playground equipment and safety surfaces
are tested to meet highest possible safety standards (EN 1176/77).
A qualified maintenance team carries out weekly inspections,
maintenance and safety checks. Annually a
playground Inspector from RoSPA (Royal Society for the Prevention
of Accidents) inspects the playgrounds and produces a report and
recommendations.
- We inspect all of our playgrounds and check equipment, safety surfacing and access at least once a week.
- We respond to emergency incidents where possible within the same working day. Our playgrounds are serviced regularly and safety is given the highest priority.
