Following earlier updates shared via Facebook , Worthington Parish Council is consulting residents on proposals to improve the Church Street play area, including the installation of a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA) for older children and teenagers. The proposals aim to provide inclusive recreational facilities, improve safety, and address ongoing issues of vandalism and anti-social behaviour, while retaining the existing play equipment for younger children.
The play area has experienced ongoing vandalism and anti-social behaviour, resulting in costs to parishioners. To address this, the proposals also include improved pedestrian access between Church Street and St Matthews Avenue, and the installation of CCTV to improve safety. CCTV has been recommended by the police; any data would be accessible only by the police, not by councillors.
We would like to hear your views before any decisions are made. Please visit https://consultation.worthington-pc.gov.uk to view the information and submit your comments.
If you are unable to access the consultation online or would like further information, please contact the Parish Clerk at clerk@worthington-pc.gov.uk
