Devon Parks Reborn: £210K Revamp for Family Fun
26 Apr
Summary
- Parks reopened after £210,000 refurbishment completed.
- Upgrades provide essential free family spaces.
- Funding came from the Rural England Prosperity Fund.
Parks across north Devon have officially reopened their gates after successfully completing extensive refurbishment works totaling £210,000. These revitalized spaces are now available for families to enjoy, providing much-needed free areas for recreation and togetherness.
The project saw significant upgrades at Pollyfield in Bideford, the Northgate play area in Hartland, and Elm Meadow in Winkleigh. These enhancements are expected to greatly benefit the health and wellbeing of the region's children and young people.
Funding for these improvements was a collaborative effort, primarily sourced from the government's Rural England Prosperity Fund. Additional support came from Pollyfield Community Centre, local councillors, and community fundraising initiatives. The council expressed gratitude for the community's patience during the renovation period.
