Project summary December 2022 to March 2025

The Accessible Play Area Provision project focused on inclusive play areas in Ruthin and Prestatyn.

It delivered over 2000 m² of improved public realm and upgraded 2 play area facilities, resulting in positive community feedback, increased family use, and improved accessibility for insuring fully inclusive play spaces for children.

March 2024

The team have had initial discussions and a site meeting with STAND to discuss and develop ideas about how an accessible play area can be delivered. Options are currently being explored and initial costs being identified with suppliers for various pieces of equipment.

Construction is due to commence April 2024.
