£45K is not enough

Tenbury Town Council are in the process of upgrading the children's play area on the Burgage. Initially they had hoped that the £45,000 that they had been awarded would be sufficient to create a really good play area.

After asking a number of equipment suppliers to put forward their ideas it became clear that to create the type of play area required they would need additional professional help.

The Town Council have now appointed a firm of architects from Worcester to create a visionary plan.

It is hoped that the initial budget of £45,000 will enable phase one of the redevelopment to be completed which may initially reuse some of the existing equipment. They are already in the process of applying for additional grants to complete the redevelopment.

Rather than accept second best, the Town Council have progressed this project in a professional way, and involved outside professional help. Hopefully the outcome will be a play area that will serve the community for many years to come and be the envy of many other towns.
