Funding your school playgrounds development


Once you have an overall vision, it is relatively simple to find funding for your school playgrounds development. Your local Council have a list of available grants. Another source of funds is through various charities. They offer grants for specific items such as shade trees for schools, native hedge plants for schools, as well as awards for various environmental endeavors.

Explore links with local businesses. They are often keen to help once you have an integrated plan for your sustainable school playgrounds development. Expect assistance with materials or labour rather than a cash hand-out however.

E.U and local environmental grants are also available. Often your application will need to be filled out by a specialist school playground Designer.

Greenstone Design UK can help you develop your school playgrounds to facilitate learning outside the classroom, across all age levels and abilities. Should you choose to use our expertise you will be partnering with professionals who value honest, open relations with our clients. As school playground design specialists we design to a fixed budget; your budget. Although inspirational we are also practical. At all times you know exactly what to expect, and when. As sustainable designers our fees are affordable.
