Rosewarn Park - Update

Following the residents survey that Tim and Sarah carried out in 2019, a number of improvements were requested to make the Rosewarn Park area more useable for all ages.

Requests from more seating and new play equipment through to all weather sports pitch were put forward and we have been working with Curo and the Council to get funding in place to make improvements.


Tim and Sarah are delighted to announce they now have funding signed off to install a Multi Use Games Area (MUGA), which will have a low level fence around it with both football goals and basketball hoops in place.  They are hopeful the funding will be released at the end of November and will then work to arrange a suitable installation date. 

Councillor Tim Ball said “Unfortunately, this project has been delayed due to the first lockdown and staff availability, but we are pleased it is now progressing”.

This is the first stage of improvements that we are working on with Curo to try and get this whole area back in use. 

Curo are arranging for the old, broken equipment in the play area to be removed and are working with local youth groups to discuss with the younger members of the community to see what they would like in it's place.

We will confirm when the work is scheduled to install the MUGA and when further improvements have been agreed.
