All-Access Equipment

All children are entitled to play. Good design of public play spaces is needed in order to make this possible and result in enhanced opportunities for all children. It is important for children of all abilities to be able to socialise when playing, sharing the learning experience of meeting, interacting and compromising in the use of equipment.

There is no need to focus on impairment specific issues, rather identify the obstacles to play for any child who might wish to access the play space and think about ways to circumvent them. Our aim should be to include rather than isolate any child, providing playgrounds where children of all abilities can play side-by-side.
