They use the power of football and sport to improve the lives of people in Norfolk and beyond and through a range of initiatives that include Health, Education, Inclusion and sports development.
The Nest facility provides a unique environment to get people active, to participate in sport whilst gaining valuable skills, employability, personal progression and making a lifelong difference to people’s lives. We have always believed in the value of play for personal development.
Our brief was to create a bespoke play space that would benefit a huge number of local people, whatever their ability, by offering a safe and nurturing space to undertake a number of interactive activities and programmes. The development of a unique and exciting multi-use adventure space adds a whole new dimension to the offerings at the nest. You can see from the initial CGI’s where our thinking took us.
A new bespoke play space The new play area itself is a maze of treetop walkways, bridges and tunnels centred around a central ‘Adventure Hub’ treehouse. Encouraging a wide range of physical and mental skills, the play area is designed to be a unique and inspiring stand-alone play structure whilst also acting as a canvas for which to hold events and create further programmed activities as part of the immersive experience visitors are given whilst at the Nest. The design also lends itself to further expansion and phasing as visitor numbers increase, with the potential for more treetop routes taken from the central hub along with the integrated adventure trail set to run along the southern belt of the site.
The completed adventure play build, as you would expect, looks exactly like the CGI’s.
