Council seeks views on play area improvements

Fareham Borough Council is planning to make improvements to three play areas in the Borough this year, and is asking for residents’ views on how they could be changed for the better.

The upgrades are part of a five-year programme of improvements to a number of play areas in the Borough which commenced in 2023. A community consultation is now open for residents to provide feedback on the suggested improvements to the following three play areas:

Course Park Crescent, Titchfield Common
Elsanta Crescent, Titchfield Common
Laurel Gardens, Locks Heath

New equipment will be installed at all play areas for different ages and abilities and, where necessary, existing equipment will be repainted and surfaces repaired.

The consultations will run until Tuesday 2 April 2024. Residents can view all of the details and have their say on the proposals here: www.fareham.gov.uk/consultations. Comments are welcome on all three play areas, and there is a separate survey for each.

Executive Member for Leisure and Community, Cllr Sue Walker, said:

“I urge parents, children and anyone with caring responsibilities for children in Titchfield Common and Locks Heath areas to give their views on the proposed improvements to these play areas. It is vital that we create spaces that promote outdoor play, health, and socialisation for our young ones, and residents’ input is invaluable in ensuring we meet the needs of our children.”

Residents can also have their say on this and other consultations by joining the 'Let's Talk Fareham' Facebook group: www.fareham.gov.uk/letstalkfareham.
