Community Play Park & Fitness Trail

The project will provide a health and fitness play area for the local community. The equipment will form a fitness trail providing a range of different exercise activities which focus on balance, co-ordination, strength and agility. This project will allow the local community of Whitlawburn access to free fitness facilities. The project will target the 5-15 year old age group.

Whitlawburn is an area of high density housing and according to statistical information for multiple deprivation (SIMD) is amongst the top 5% most deprived areas in Scotland. These statistics measure income, employment, health, education, geograpical access, housing and crime.
This project aimed at improving children’s level of physical activity is in line with the Scottish Governments strategy to make communities healthier, safer and stronger.
