Brighton & Hove unveils new playground equipment

Brighton & Hove City Council has unveiled the second-largest outdoor playground equipment refurbishment project in its history.

The project comes with a budget of £543,000 for the redevelopment of the Hollingdean Park play area. The initiative, in collaboration with Proludic, will develop a popular community space but also introduce recreational facilities catering to teenagers and adults. Brighton & Hove City Council involved the community in the tender specification process and even went the extra mile by consulting with residents on-site to introduce the design and gather their invaluable feedback before commencing installation. Area Manager for the South-East, Tim Bird, collaborated closely with Proludic’s design team to produce a concept tailored specifically to the location and neighbourhood.
