How We Are Run

SWAPA is run by a management of local people, parents and professionals who are responsible for our finances, policies, insurance, staff, fundraising, equipment, projects and the well being of those who use the facilities. We also have volunteers, members of the community and trainees who contribute to the life of the playground. We currently employ two full time staff members with 1-2 part- time and inclusion workers during the school holidays, when numbers increase. All staff have relevant training, qualifications and a CRB check, in line with current Child Protection practices. The playground is also registered with Ofsted - the board that monitors quality and safety standards in children's services
