RoSPA Play Quality Awards
A RoSPA Play Quality Award is the ultimate testimonial to your authority’s or organisation’s commitment to the provision of good child play opportunities and inclusion for disabled people. It is undoubtedly the most effective method of demonstrating your commitment to your ‘peers’, charge payers and other stakeholders.
RoSPA Play Quality Awards are made in two categories:
Play Quality Awards are aimed at authorities and organisations wishing to prove to themselves and others that they take young people’s safety seriously. They also provide recognition for others who help raise play standards across the board, by working hard to improve their own performance.
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents – one of the world’s leading health and safety organisations – therefore invites authorities and organisations of all sizes and types and from all over the world to enter the RoSPA Play Quality Awards Scheme.
Award winners will be eligible to display a RoSPA Play Quality Award plaque on the relevant play area.
What are the benefits of achieving a RoSPA Play Quality Award?
Promotion
Management of award winning sites and operators may use the relevant award logo on stationary, promotional material, vehicles, uniforms and in other appropriate situations for the duration of which the award is valid.
Service Improvements
A RoSPA Play Quality Award is a clear and visible demonstration to the community and local councillors that improvements have been made to the play area or operators.
Good Community Facilities
Improvements to the local facilities can help to engage local people. This will encourage good health, education and reduced crime rates providing a visible improvement to the area.
Revenue Opportunities
A RoSPA Play Quality Award may add leverage to an application for external funding and could assist in securing more favourable internal budget settlements.
Tourism
People may visit parks from afar and a RoSPA Play Quality Award is a visible statement to the quality and experience that a visitor may expect. It can become an effective marketing tool.
