Village Playground Improvements Update

Were nearly there!!

The village playground and outdoor gym works are almost complete! We are expecting a safety inspection next week and as soon as this is completed the fencing will be removed and the new equipment will be available to use. The outdoor gym area is looking fantastic as well as the 3 new pieces of play equipment for toddlers.

The Parish Council will be organising an official opening event that residents will be welcome to attend but have decided to delay this until after 21st June when hopefully restrictions on social contact are lifted allowing more people to attend.

Budget and Precept

Stanstead Abbotts Parish Council has a budget of approximately £40k each year raised by way of a parish precept (a small element of the council tax) which it uses to provide public facilities such as a children’s playground, adult gym equipment, notice boards, Christmas Lights, CCTV and a public access defribrilator.
