Investment was secured by the council and The Parks Foundation to refurbish 15 play areas across Bournemouth. Councillor Mark Anderson, portfolio holder for environment, cleansing and waste said: “I’m delighted that we’ve been able to secure additional funding to improve these play area sites across Bournemouth. “We are committed to enhancing our parks and open spaces and this investment will improve Bournemouth’s play areas in line with Christchurch and Poole. “We’ve been allowed to keep our play areas open throughout this third lockdown which has benefitted so many families across our conurbation. Being able to go outside and use these facilities helps the children run off steam and gives their parents and carers the opportunity to go outside and get fresh air, promoting wellbeing for the whole family.
