Meet the Team
At Everyday Play, we’re proud to be a company that does everything in-house. From the very first idea to the final installation, every part of your playground project is handled by our own team, all based here in Britain.
We work closely with you to design playgrounds that suit your space, your needs and your community. Our in-house playground designer creates fun, engaging and practical spaces for all ages and abilities. Whether it’s a school playground, a community area or an attraction, we make sure the design reflects your vision and the needs of the children who will use it.
Once your design is finalised, it moves into our workshop, where our skilled team builds every element with care and attention. Because we make everything ourselves, we can ensure the quality and durability that Everyday Play is known for.
Installation is also handled by our own team, including specialists in areas like safety surfacing. This means everything is installed to our high standards, with no third parties involved. You get consistent Everyday Play quality and service every step of the way.
All our team members are DBS checked, and we regularly work with local schools and attractions across Kent and beyond. We love getting the children involved in the process too, helping them feel part of something exciting and new. From choosing colours to sharing ideas, it’s all about creating something together.
As experienced playground designers in Kent, we’re proud to offer a fully in-house service and to build everything right here in the UK. We are a real team, and we take pride in every project we work on.
At Everyday Play, it’s not just about building school playgrounds or community spaces. It’s about doing it with care, passion and pride – all under one roof.
