RECREATION
GROUND NEW PLAY AREA JUNE 2023
REASON:
The original play area was installed during the 90’s and was ageing and rapidly approaching the end of its useful life. The play area has been replaced with up-to-date equipment appropriate to the youngsters using it.
FUNDING:
The major part of the cost was granted out of the Community Infrastructure Levy - Neighbourhood Portion, available in East Hampshire for the provision of Open Spaces Projects. The Parish Council has provided the balance of funding from funds allocated for that purpose.
BENEFITS:
Access to open space and play areas is essential to the mental and physical health and well-being of local youth. This is a built up area of Horndean. At a Community level such areas assist with place making and providing for a sustainable community.
