The PPA is a fantastic forum for both existing play operators and new entrants alike to share ideas and to improve their range of services as well as the reputation of the industry.

"Those play operators who are serious about safety, quality and service consistency will be able, through the PPA, to improve the image, performance and success of the UK Indoor Play Industry as a whole."

The PPA is a highly proactive group and meets regularly on both a regional and national event. We hold networking events to bring together the highly fragmented play industry as a collective so that its standing within the leisure sector can be improved.
