The new play equipment comprises a daisy rocker, which will replace the seesaw. (Unfortunately, there isn’t enough space for both items.) There is also a shop play panel, which will be great for imaginative play.

Signage will be in place to advise park users of the temporary disruption.

Cllr Josh Coldspring-White, who played a key role in bringing about the new equipment, said: “This is excellent news. Play is a very important part of a child’s development, and I know that the new play equipment will bring a lot of pleasure to children in and around Hayes.”
