{{ 'About' | translate }} Crowdfund Guildford

Created by Guildford Borough Council in partnership with Spacehive, Crowdfund Guildford gives community groups the opportunity to imagine, create and fund projects that matter to them. Guildford residents know best what is needed in their neighbourhoods and have the skills and creativity to shape the future of Guildford. Crowdfund Guildford provides springboard for locally-led ideas to attract funding more easily, while enabling everyone who cares about their community to contribute - chipping in as little as £2 to help bring projects to life. As community groups become project-creators through Crowdfund Guildford, projects can attract funding through their local community, Guildford Borough Council, local businesses, foundations and more.

A new playground for Sandfield School
A new playground for Sandfield School joined Crowdfund Guildford1 month ago

At Sandfield part of the playground is on a 45% slope. Also based on BB103 guidance, the Sandfield site is significantly below recommended site area, at only 40% of the minimum area that would be considered sufficient for a new primary school. Therefore, Sandfield has a very limited flat space that can be used for outside learning. The lack of space and slope, makes it very difficult for children to have high quality PE lessons and space to run round and play safely. We have a high number of accidents due to the slope, becoming slippery in wet weather. Our proposal is to put in a retaining wall and build up the playground into a flat smooth surface. We would then have the whole playground re-surfaced, with a non-slip material. Children would then be invited to create some designs for playground games that could be painted onto our new playground surface, this can include a mile a day circuit, agility trail, circuit training and playground games.
