The Grand Opening and YouFirst Fun Day was a great success, it was fantastic to see all the families enjoying the new facilities.
The Mayor of Chickerell, Councillor Mike Jolliffe, opened the play area and said “It was a great day, the weather held for us and the young people are treating their new facilities extremely well. We hope you continue to enjoy and look after them for years to come”.
Could we please ask that you help us to keep the play area in a good condition by asking children not to take bikes, scooters or skateboards in there but to use the bike rack provided.
