I have been tasked with undertaking a risk assessment for our indoor adventure playground. Would anyone have a template or be able to help me with a risk assessment for one these?

Contact the manufacturer/supplier of the equipment, they'll provide all the information needed in terms of when to and what to inspect, also speak to the people supervising the use of the items - they'll be able to identify the real issues to help you complete a RA.
Consider things like age/height restrictions, wearing long sleeves - if there’s a slide, it’ll reduce the likelihood of friction burns. All users must wear socks at all times, no eating/drinking/smoking or wearing jewellery, no boisterous behaviour (other than what’s expected from the little ones), restrictions on length of time spent on apparatus and a good supply of drinks (to prevent dehydration), draw up and action plan with staff to deal with emergencies (ranging from emergency evacuations to a stranded child), have a rest area to allow the little blighters to cool down… First Aid arrangements and training… the list goes on…
You could also speak to your LA Environmental Health Team; they enforce this type of activity. They should point you in the right direction.
Hope this helps.
Regards

Does anyone have any experience of these adventure style indoor playgrounds being used by adults/teenagers for private functions?
Add to that the premises have a restaurant alcohol licence.
In anticipation

I believe some of the priced RoSPA publications will cover this.
