We asked

In August 2022, we asked the Chartwell community for their feedback around an upgrade of the playground at Chartwell Park. We wanted to know what sorts of play equipment they wanted to see at their playground, with a like-for-like renewal planned. This means that the playground will be staying roughly the same size and having the same number of play features.
