THANKS to a National Lottery grant of £10,000 and £9,000 from SUEZ Community Trust, plus funds from Sandford Parish Council, the village play area now has an Adult Gym.

At the same time the fencing around the play area has been tidied up and two new entrances made.

In the new year a basket ball hoop will be added.

New equipment is also to be installed at the Creedy View play area.

Thanks are due to Vice Chairman Dave Hope for securing the grants and masterminding the project, and to Andy from Ministry of Play for installing the new equipment.
