Playforce

Base in Holt, Wiltshire, Playforce was founded in 1998 by Edward and Rachael Webb with a £5,000 Princes Trust Loan. Identifying the need for high quality playground equipment in schools, Playforce offers a wide range of creative play equipment from 'wobble walkways', timber trails, and climbing walls, to outdoor classrooms and shelters. All are designed to inspire children to have fun and stimulate their imagination.

Playforce was recognised in December 2007 as one of the fastest growing companies in the UK in the Sunday Times Fast Track 100, and is at the forefront of innovation in a sector which has enjoyed increasing focus over recent years.

"We have experienced industry leading growth over the last three years with a particular emphasis on the education sector. I am delighted to have secured funding and expertise from ISIS to push forward our growth plans. The investment will ensure that service, growth, and innovation remain at the forefront of everything we do."

Edward Webb, MD
