Year started with Sovereign: 2010

When I was very young, I always imagined I would become a primary school teacher or an art teacher, but I developed love for photography and design which eventually led me to study for a degree in photography at Cheltenham.

I now have over a decade in playground design experience and thrive off helping clients bring to life their outdoor spaces. I truly believe that learning outside the classroom is fundamental to a child’s growth and development.

Now with a toddler of my own in tow, it’s added a new dynamic to how I see play environments and given me a renewed vigor and approach to developing spaces that are perfect for children to explore and learn.

Best thing about my job:

Getting to understand the benefit equipment like ours actually brings to a child’s development – from physical and emotional development through to role play and sensory exploration.

Favourite playtime game as a child:

As a child I loved anything pretty physical – football, baseball, outdoorsy stuff – I was a real tomboy!

Favourite piece of Sovereign Play equipment:

My favourite piece of play equipment has to be our range of mud kitchen elements. I love a bit of cooking and can only imagine as a child this would have been perfect for me to role play and spend hours baking mud-pie cakes and getting messy.

Case Study:

Sherington pre-school

“The installation of the new playground has been more successful than we could have ever hoped. The large pergola has made a wonderful shaded area from the sun and we’ve been able to have activities outside when it’s raining too. The surface change has made the transition of outdoors to indoors, much easier, with no need to change muddy shoes or wellies. Bikes and trikes are much easier to manoeuvre around the flat surface. The mud kitchen, climbing unit and adventure mound are firm favourites. Staff and children enjoy the outdoor space so much more!”

Testimonials

Don’t just take our word for it

Thank you for the amazing job your people did on our playground recently. It looks fantastic. The photographs actually do not do it justice. It looks amazing and has been admired by all who have seen it. The children love it too. Once again thank you for your excellent customer service. It's been a pleasure.

The children are absolutely delighted with the trail and it looks fantastic! I have ‘Tweeted’ some pictures and tagged Sovereign Play in, and one of your colleagues has been in touch with regard to re using it which is of course fine!

I had a look at the play equipment with my grandson yesterday. He gave it a big thumbs up. There were other families there and they all thought it was great. It looks very impressive and value for money, I'm very happy. I have and will recommend Sovereign to others.
