The Lady Mayoress officially opened two children’s play areas in
the Ward. The aim of the Government’s Playbuilder Scheme is
to provide high quality natural play areas (using trees, wood,
water, grass and rocks), for children aged between 8 > 13 years
of age, that is challenging as well as relaxing.
Sadly, it rained on the day, but neither the Lady Mayoress nor
the children attending were deterred by the weather. Portsoken
Street is the site of an area created to inspire the imagination of
younger children, while at Tower Hill Gardens a more adventurous
environment has been created for the higher age group.
Hopefully to be much used by resident, local school and visiting
children - we wish them all hours of fun!
