The Basildon Council initiated a tender process for the refurbishment of the picturesque Lake Meadows Park and Playground Area. The playground’s design aimed to weave a captivating tale about a Wizard and Dragon residing at Lake Meadow. The local Friends of Group crafted this narrative. This magical story was brought to life through carefully chosen equipment and design elements. The design infuses the area with imagination and creativity.
The revitalised Lake Meadows park and playground space now boasts fully flush accessible safety surfacing, ensuring that all users can easily access every piece of equipment. Additionally, a wealth of new playground features has been introduced, including a custom-made twin castle multiplay unit towering at 4 meters in height, an inclusive seesaw (J987), and an ACTI’Ninja aerial crossing with Sky Rail (J5913), to name just a few. As you navigate the playground, you’ll also have the opportunity to engage with ‘The Wizard, the Dragon, and the Lost Eggs’ storyline—can you locate all the hidden eggs?
Throughout the Lake Meadows play area, children will encounter bespoke wizard-themed sensory boards and interactive panels, a height chart cleverly designed as a dragon, and a chance to immerse themselves in the story as they enter. Proludic caters to individuals of all ages and abilities by carefully selecting equipment with accessibility in mind, including an inclusive ground trampoline.
Proludic are a great team to work with, the communication is great and the aftercare service is always the best.
