Caister Avenue Play Equipment replaced after Councillor intervention

Cllr Murray and the new Four Way Rocker in Caister Avenue Play area

 

Cllr Sarah Murray has today expressed her gratitude to the Worcester

City and Warndon Villages Parish Councils after she negotiated an

arrangement to replace a popular piece of play equipment located at

the play area on Caister Avenue.

 

Cllr Murray became involved when a local resident raised concerns that the

four way rocker on the playground had been removed but not yet replaced.

Cllr Murray took the case to the city council but was told that the rocker

was too expensive.

 

Undeterred, Cllr Murray approached the Parish Council and subsequently

facilitated an agreement between the City and Parish Councils to share the

cost of the replacement play equipment 50/50.

Cllr Murray has thanked both Worcester City and Warndon Village Parish Councils for working together to replace the rocker

 

Cllr Murray thanked both the councils for their help and understanding in

coming to an agreement for the users of the play area. “It means a lot that

the councils came together in this instance. The play area is well loved

and well used and it would have been a huge shame if the rocker had

not been replaced.

 

‘I totally understand that budgets are tight across the city, but I am so

pleased that both councils agreed with the residents and myself that

this was an important resource that couldn’t be ignored and were open

minded to working with me to find this successful solution.’

The new four way rocker has been installed in the Caister Avenue play area

today (4th October 2024).
