Live projects

Play Area Refurbishments

Our latest round of engagement on proposed play area refurbishments is now live - over the coming weeks, you have a chance to shape your local play area by telling us what you'd like to see at each of the following locations:

  • Gauntlet Park, Privett Road, Purbrook, PO7 5JW (engagement live between 14 April and 12 May 2025)
  • Elizabeth Road, Stakes, PO7 5TZ (engagement live between 13 May and 10 June 2025)
  • Nutwick Road, Denvilles, PO9 2UQ (engagement live between 11 June and 9 July 2025)

Your views will be important to ensure that the play areas fit the needs of their community.

These sites are prioritised based on a number of factors, including the condition of the existing play equipment and anticipated life expectancy, the level of play value and enjoyment opportunity for children and the geographical spread and accessibility of existing high quality play provision.

Have your say on the latest round of play area engagement.
