New Maes y Dre playground opens Friday

 

The Mayor will officially open the upgraded facility, which has undergone a £45,000 facelift, at 12.30pm and the general public is invited to attend.

 

New equipment for the play area includes swings - together with a swing specially designed for disabled users - roundabout, climbing frame with slide and a teenagers ‘hammock and lazy boy’. The existing trim trail remains as it is only three years old.

 

Seating and the swings in the smaller play area have all been refurbished.

 

A town council press release stated: “Pupils from the local infant and junior schools were involved in a consultation earlier in the year to ascertain what they would like to have in the new play area, and representatives from the schools have been invited so that they can see the results of their input into the project.”
