It is a good idea to get a clear vision of what you are looking to achieve before applying for playground funding so ask yourselves the following questions:

• What do we want to achieve?
• What is the need/primary use for your playground and outdoor educational equipment?
• Who will be using the play area?
• What benefits will the play area bring?
• What deadline are we working towards?
• Do we have enough space?
• Do we need planning permission?
