Playground Canopies & Shelters
Playground canopies are becoming increasingly important for schools, contributing to the health and wellbeing of pupils and staff in many different ways. Rising temperatures mean creating areas of shade with a playground canopy or playground shelter is vital to sun safety.
A canopy, such as a fabric structure or school shade sail, can support sunlight exposure policies by raising awareness of the risks of spending time outside in the sun.

"Fantastic job Broxap did"
“It’s been a long time since we last spoke, I realise that I have been remiss in telling you what a fantastic job Broxap did on our first shelter, the teachers, pupils and parents have been over the moon with the availability of shelter, especially over the last few months of rain!!! It has been a brilliant meeting place and the children have been using it to eat lunch outside the last week or so, whilst keeping out of the April showers.”
