4 July 2020: Playground update
The playground will remain closed until further notice and all play equipment has been taped up.
Following the example of Warwick District Council, which is carrying out a phased re-opening of outdoor facilities, the PC is hoping to open soon, with guidance for users, following a thorough risk assessment to ensure compliance with Government guidelines.
The PC is grateful to all users for their patience.
