The new play area in Hope Street, Lumphinnans is now complete and officially open, with local children and residents celebrating the occasion.
Fife Council is delighted to announce the completion of the £150,000 play area, which is a safe environment for children of all ages and abilities. It features state of the art equipment including sensory and tactile play panels, springers and seesaw, as well as a carousel, zipline and climbing nets.
This new play area has replaced equipment that has gradually been removed over the last few years as it reached the end of its safe operational life.
Councillor Alex Campbell, Convenor of Cowdenbeath area committee said: “I’m incredibly proud to see this new play area open, which has been made possible through the council’s investment in our community.
“As a council we’re committed to providing good play value for children of different ages and needs, and to make sure that our public parks and the Kingdom’s greenspace continues to provide financially sustainable and varied opportunities for outdoor play.
“Our commitment to inclusivity shines in this thoughtfully designed space, featuring accessible play equipment, sensory friendly elements, and a welcoming environment for children of diverse abilities.
“We believe it will be a cherished destination for families seeking a fun day out for many years to come.”
