Burwell QEII Community Play Area

Witney Town Council is seeking funding of up to £25,000 to help redevelop the Burwell QEII Community Play Area which is in urgent need of attention as it has not been refurbished for over 10 years. The current site only has a few pieces of play equipment and a single bench and the council have received public complaints about the facility being poor and their not being enough equipment for children of all ages. The insurance company have also failed the safety surface on a number of occasions which has brought about the urgent need for redevelopment of the site. Burwell Recreational Ground serves a large community and the site benefits from Burwell Community Hall which is used regularly by local clubs, play groups and toddler groups as well as hosting weddings and parties for local families. The site is also well used by many local football teams.
