Nature play: Maintenance guide

This guidance aims to support those responsible for developing, delivering and maintaining innovative natural play spaces into parks and play spaces.

The guide aims to support local authorities in introducing nature play into their play spaces according to the design principles outlined in Design for Play: A guide to creating successful play spaces.

The guide will highlight the need for commissioners and designers to consider the management and maintenance implications at the start and throughout the development of a new play space. Also identify procedures to support the ongoing maintenance of these play areas and ensure that consideration is given to ongoing revenue funding for maintenance, repairs or replacement.

The guide is for all those involved in providing and managing play provision, especially unstaffed public play areas, in particular local authorities, housing associations, designers of play space and maintenance staff.
