Last year Maidstone Borough Council invited bids for a share of a £200k pot they had set aside for play areas they saw as important across the Borough. We were successful in our bid for £7k to fence off the play area with a picket fence, landscape the back of it as well and buy a new piece of play equipment. The money was received shortly before Christmas and will be used over the next few months depending on the weather. Peter Allchin will do the fencing and landscape works and will generously do some of the work at cost. Once done, we should have a safer play area for young children to play in as well as an extended range of activities.
Our thanks to Maidstone Borough Council for funding this and Peter for carrying out the works over the next few months.
The work must be done by 30th June 2019.
