Play Facilities

There are approximately 54 playgrounds/multi use games areas in Torbay, the locations of which are listed below.

They all have safety surfaces surrounding the play equipment and are all inspected on a regular basis by trained operatives.

The playgrounds are all included in an on-going rolling refurbishment programme.

Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust has a play facility at Cockington Court with ensures disabled children can use them alongside their able-bodied friends and siblings.

A Play Strategy has been developed to inform future development and delivery of play services throughout Torbay.

We are also aware of all the latest innovations from playground manufacturers of playground equipment.

In order to provide equipment to suit the users, we undertake surveys to identify further play needs.  This also includes working in partnership to achieve joint initiatives such as the two skate parks at Victoria Park, Paignton and Windmill Hill Recreation Ground, Hele.  There are further projects planned.
