We have helped schools with all aspects of implementation from fundraising to publicizing including more recently an interactive design process wherein we actually took the pupils of various schools for design classes and then discussing and developing their basic designs before building them. This got the pupils actively involved and taught them valuable lessons in safe design and use. The playground policies that we developed were usually very safety conscious and because the children were generating them, they were very likely to be implemented!

The 140 or so projects that we have undertaken in the past 15 years and the recent interactive design process have given the insight necessary to draw up our latest product, the "Activity Landscaping" Design Guidance Notes, from which the spider diagram on the right, is taken
To support this product we are undertaking inset teacher training and any schools buying the guidance notes also have the facility to refer to the author. This remote presence made possible by the internet gets David Lloyd-Jones on line as a consultant to advise on specific design issues.
