Play Park Opening & BBQ

We are pleased to announce that work on a new play park for local residents has now been completed and the two young boys who first raised the idea will cut the ribbon at its grand opening on Bank Holiday Monday, 26^th August. Last summer the North 9^th and 10^th Street Residents’ Association (CHRA) asked the Town Council to help them turn the large but neglected garden into a much more friendly place for children and families. After talking it through with Bob Stones, Chair of CHRA, and local police officer Jim Lake, the Town Council agreed to pay part of the cost. Then, with help from Milton Keynes Council, we successfully put in a bid to a group called WREN, who generously agreed to provide the majority of the funding (£50,000). Come along to the grand opening and fun fair and see what people power and creative thinking can achieve!
