Arnside Children's Playground

Great News From The Arnside Playground Project

The target has been reached! 🎉😁😻 and the new playground equipment is currently being manufactured. The lead time is around 8-10 weeks and the installation takes 2-3 weeks. So the new playground should be up and running in time for summer at the latest 🛝🌞

Thank you to everyone who has helped, supported and donated to the Playground Project over the last 12 months. There has been amazing community involvement and it has all made this possible. Grants have been received from various trusts and community funds, as well as sizeable donations from local events including the Arnside Music Festival and the Arts & Crafts Fair in the summer. The Parish Council have also made a sizeable donation in recognition of the importance of having a safe, stimulating children’s playground in the village.

The price has been renegotiated with the supplier, and it has been agreed to use our own contractor to remove the current equipment. A generous offer to supply security fencing while the work is done free of charge has all helped to get to our goal.

So a massive ‘Thank You!’ and ‘Well Done!’ to the fundraising group, sponsors, donors and everyone involved in making this happen.

We look forward to seeing all the children having a great time and enjoying the new Arnside Playground!

Did You Know You Can Help Our Local School In This Way?

Would you like to support our local school but not sure how to go about it? Then the Arnside National School Lottery could be an ideal way to do it.

It has been set up specifically to raise money and make a difference for our children, and it’s a great way to bring Parents, Carers, Teachers and the wider community together, in partnership with our school. And at the same time give something back.

The hope is to raise funds that can support and enrich the education of the children, providing extra resources and improving the school environment, as well as running extra curricular activities such as music, art and sport.
