Work on the installation of new play equipment at a Galley Common play area is set to begin on Monday, 23 November, bringing exciting new play opportunities for children and families in the community.
The new equipment, which includes a roundabout, swings with both flat and cradle seats, junior and toddler multiplay towers, a springer, a seesaw and more, has been selected for Chaucer Drive play area in Nuneaton and will cater for a mixed age group of toddlers and juniors, providing an inclusive play space for children of different ages and abilities.
Once installed, the play area will also be accessible through a pathway from the nearby track, helping to improve access and making it easier for families and visitors to enjoy the facilities.
Cllr Bobbie Greenwood, Portfolio Holder for Leisure and Health, said:
“Providing high-quality play facilities for children and families is important to our community, and the new equipment will offer opportunities for children of different ages to play and have fun outdoors.
“We are delighted that work is due to begin on the new play equipment at Chaucer Drive and look forward to seeing the finished play area being enjoyed by local families.”
Although the installation date has been confirmed by the supplier, as always, the programme remains weather dependent. Any changes to the schedule will be communicated.
The project represents a welcome addition to the local area, providing children with an opportunity to play and spend time outdoors.
