Revamped Exmouth play area now open

The Crescent play area in Littleham is the latest to be upgraded with new play equipment as part of a £283,000 investment project across the district.

Local children were consulted about what they wanted in the new play area, and they requested a ground level trampoline, a zip wire and a tall exciting slide. All of these items of play equipment have been installed, as well as climbing frames and swings. This equipment meets the latest European Standards and is surrounded by safety surfacing.

Councillor Anne Hall, Ward Member for Exmouth Littleham, said: "I’m pleased to see the upgraded play park, and having visited earlier this week, the children are enjoying the new equipment, which is ideally timed with the start of the school holidays. A great improvement to this well used facility."

Councillor Brian Bailey, Ward Member for Exmouth Littleham, said: "Everyone is thrilled with this new project. It’s great to see such a major community investment in Littleham. Thank you so much."

Councillor Nick Hookway, Ward Member for Exmouth Littleham, said: "I hope that this new facility proves popular and provides great fun for Littleham residents"
