At Proludic we appreciate how daunting it can be for Parishes and Communities alike to get playgrounds and sports areas initiatives off the ground. We have listened to these frustrations time and time again. Therefore, we want to further support you and your project dreams to become reality.

You can now get this support through a series of informative films we have designed to assist you at every stage of the journey. There are 7 films in the series, entitled ‘The 7 steps to success – Funding & Consultation Guide’.

Seven Steps films to playground equipment consultation & funding

Here are the key steps that your group will get out of the films:

  1. Helps you Identify and Evidence your playground, outdoor gym and/or sports area
  2. Provides guidance on creating your dream place space design
  3. Offers tips on how best to reach out and consult with your community
  4. Outlines the playground funding options out there
  5. Goes into the process of applying for and drawing down funds
  6. Looks at celebrating your success once completed
  7. Looks to the future and how best to maintain your asset

We are very excited to be releasing these informative videos. They include real-life examples, anecdotes from real people who have been through the process, and handy tips from the Proludic team.

To access these videos and for more information please join our closed Facebook group here. We hope the guide in a film format will bring inspiration and act as an invaluable resource to get you started and maintain your project’s momentum.

We are committed to offering you expert advice on every aspect of your project, starting with the best way to identify and evidence the facilities your community needs, and enlist their help to strengthen your application. Proludic offers a full range of added-value services which can be discussed at your initial consultation.

We offer a free design service to help you create a play space design aligned to your community’s vision. You can use this to gain additional feedback from your community. This is a great way to better evidence your project for sources of funding out there.

Finally, Proludic is proud to have a dedicated after-sales department available to come to your site at any time. We carry an extensive stock of spare parts to meet any maintenance needs rapidly and efficiently. Proludic prides ourselves that customer service is at the heart of everything we do.
