Torridge District Council is pleased to announce that four play areas in East-the-Water, Bideford; Hartland and Winkleigh have recently been opened following £210,000 worth of refurbishment works.
At Pollyfield, East-the-Water, Bideford, the Council has worked in partnership with the Pollyfield Community Centre to refurbish the infant play area. The Pollyfield Community Centre and local councillors have supported the project with some amazing fundraising events, alongside S106 housing development funds and Council Contribution, to ensure that a more interactive and usable space is now available for the community.
In Winkleigh, Elms Meadow has undergone a total refurbishment programme receiving all new equipment, with Westcotts Drive gaining a new multi-unit with surfacing and a new bench. In Hartland, the Northgate Play Area has received a significant upgrade.
The Winkleigh and Hartland sites have been funded by the Government’s Rural England Prosperity Fund.
