Playgrounds on Manor Fruit Farm and Normandy Common – update

 

It’s with regret that the Normandy Parish Council has to advise our residents that we are unable to open the playgrounds in these areas. The Parish Council has not taken this decision lightly, as we know that many families wish to take advantage of the equipment over the summer holidays. This is due to advice from our insurers and a lack of resources to implement a consistent cleaning regime of the equipment.

We are aware of the fact that some councils have opened theirs but there is no standard guidance from the authorities that means all those responsible for these playgrounds can make the same decision. As soon as we get consistent advice and permission then we will review this unfortunate situation for all those that are keen to use the facilities.

Any queries please contact the Parish Clerk parish.clerk@normandyparishcouncil.gov.uk
