Parade Gardens play parks – thank you!
The new Parade Gardens play areas opened their gates ahead of schedule last Friday in time for children to enjoy during the Easter holidays.
It has been wonderful to see both playgrounds full of smiling families over the past week and we have received lots of amazing feedback.
