This daily playground inspection checklist helps outdoor managers and staff verify the safety and condition of play areas at the start of each operating day. Aligned with ROSPA operational playground inspection practices, it guides checks for surfacing cleanliness and integrity, structural damage, exposed fixings, sharp edges, loose or missing components, and deterioration of timber and hardware. It covers swings, slides, rope elements, springers, cableways, platforms, walkways, and guard rails, as well as fencing, obstructions, and general site tidiness. The template also prompts recording inspector details, signature, date, weather, and notes on hazards such as appealing plants. Use it to document issues, prioritize corrective actions, and maintain a safe, compliant recreational environment.
