New play equipment at Bratch Park, Wombourne
Exciting changes at Bratch Park
A new play area has now opened located in Bratch Park, Bratch Lane specifically designed for the younger children.
A need was identified by the Parish Council in 2015-16 and the children at our four primary schools were consulted on the design and asked to identify what items of play equipment they thought most applicable.
The first item to be installed (in 2017) was their number one priority an aerial runway (zip wire) and now the new play area is now fully operational (installed September 2018).
The Parish Council successfully obtained a grant to part fund the project from the Big Lottery Fund.
Here’s some photos of the new equipment –
The next improvement at the park will be the resurfacing of the car park, watch this space for information on this!
The Parish Council would love to hear your feedback on the new scheme. You can email your comments to enquiries@wombourneparishcouncil.org.uk
