Play Area Latest

Over the last few months, we have been having some very positive conversations and meetings with both staff at Southampton City Council (SCC) and their play equipment supplier. The bar chart below shows the most requested play equipment from the survey we organised in 2023 after the previous equipment had been removed.

We have used this information in our discussions to see if the most popular items could be included in any replacement designs. Subsequently, the play area has been surveyed and measured, and a concept design has been produced. We will have a copy of this available at our AGM on 19 March. We hope the new play equipment will be installed late spring/early summer 2025.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to our fundraising efforts, and signed our petition. It really has helped us in our negotiations, and we are grateful to SCC staff who have recognised our efforts and worked with us to keep this project moving forwards. We hope to have more updates soon.
