Cheslyn Hay Play Area
Cheslyn Hay Play Area
This year, Cheslyn Hay Parish Council were successful in
obtaining funding from the
Play Builder scheme. Playbuilder
aims to provide new & improved open-access play areas for
children aged 8-13yrs across the County.
Through this scheme, Cheslyn Hay Parish
Council developed a natural play area, situated in amongst trees at
a recreation ground in the village. The site contains lots of play
experiences, where children & young people can climb, run, sit
and chat, and use the two zip wires. As all the equipment is built
entirely from natural materials, it fits in with the natural
woodland area.
The play area is a great addition to the other
facilities in the village, and is being well used by local children
& young people.
The Playbuilder scheme is now closed to new applications, with
the final round of applications being assessed in March. However,
there is still funding available for play from elsewhere – if you
would like to improve play facilities in your village, you are
advised to talk through your ideas with South Staffordshire Play
Partnership, who can give you all the advice you will need,
including the latest national guidance around play.
