How often are play areas inspected?
Equipment is checked by qualified inspectors on a weekly basis (minimum) to ensure that equipment is functional, secure and safe. In addition to this, all play areas are visited at least twice a week to carry out appropriate cleansing operations, such as litter collection. Play areas may be visited in addition to the above frequencies during heavy use such as school holidays and after reported vandalism. Some popular sites are visited on five occasions per week.
