A play area on a Nottinghamshire recreation ground is set to be improved thanks to a £100,000 grant. FCC Communities Foundation provided the grant to Lambley Lane Recreation Ground Play Area in Gedling, which will see the old equipment and flooring removed and replaced.
The site will have a brand new play area, which will include a 30m zip line, swings, slides and climbing frames. It will also have a number of accessible and inclusive facilities including a DDA compliant roundabout, trampoline, basket swing and play panels.
These changes will make the play area suitable for children up to the age of 12 years old, unlike the current play area which is only suitable for those aged six and under. Work on the park will begin in November 2023 and is expected to last for six weeks, during which the existing play area will be closed.
