Welcome to the Summer 2026 edition of Outside Comfort Zone, where we bring you the latest news, insights and ideas for creating smarter, more effective outdoor environments.
In this issue, we’re proud to announce that Able Canopies has become an Official Business Club Partner of Leeds United Football Club. We also explore how multi-use outdoor spaces can deliver greater value, explain why the angle of a shade sail post matters, and consider whether increasingly hot UK summers are changing the way we need to design and prepare our outdoor spaces – plus much more.
