Gosford Park Children's Play Area

You need to have JavaScript enabled to view this map

The project will provide a play area for young children in a local park in Stoke Green to promote healthy living and interaction between children. Local parents will be able to make new friends and become more involved in the residents’ association. A plaque to commemorate the life of Joseph Levi, a local philanthropist, will also be mounted on the play area wall to replace the nearby monument which has fallen into disrepair.

This great green space needs a community focal point and a place for children to enjoy and play safely. Our gardens are small and there is no childrens park in this locality.

We desperately need somewhere local like this. Our nearest park is over a mile walk away!!! This would be absolutely fabulous for us and I really do hope we get the funding for the children in our local community!!! Fingers crossed!!
