Good quality outdoor playing space (for children's play, recreation and for sport) can enhance people’s quality of life and, while people will use attractive well-run spaces, they are put off getting out and being active, if their local area falls below expectation.
The OPFA is here to help the community-minded people in the parishes (mostly volunteers), who manage the playing fields, children’s play areas and multi-purpose hard surfaces, to make them the best quality that they can.
We aim to make the task of outdoor playing space provision and management as easy as possible and in particular, our advice on how to provide and manage local spaces in line with COVID19-safe good practice was vital during the pandemic.
We can provide information and advice on a wide variety of subjects relating to the management of green spaces and offer a consultancy service to assist you with any procurement and project management needs.
We can help you.
