For the supply and installation of Accessible Play Equipment in play park(s)

The work is for the design, supply and installation of appropriate groundworks, materials, equipment and associated works relevant to the site which should comply to the appropriate British or European Standards, mainly BS EN 1177 and BS EN 1176. If there is evidence that the work does not confirm to the required standard and as a result the materials or workmanship are substandard, unsafe or require replacement or repair, this will be completed at the cost of the Contractor.
