A new play area in Mildenhall has ‘delighted’ residents and encouraged active, cooperative play in children.
Sutcliffe Play were tasked with installing a new playground at Mildenhall Playing Fields near Marlborough, Wiltshire.
The playground is being installed in two phases, the first of which is now complete. Designed to encourage fitness and active play, it features equipment suitable for a wide range of ages and abilities.
Amongst the new equipment installed is a Tangle Trail and Teepee from our Orchard range, a range of environmentally friendly equipment which encourages physical, challenging play and social interaction. It comprises wood-based clamber units and trim trails which help to improve balance, strength and coordination.
The playground also features an inclusive basket seat, a hill slide and a mound tunnel.
“The whole village is delighted with the new equipment,” says Sir Nigel Thompson, Chairman of Mildenhall Parish Council. “It is encouraging fitness and is being enjoyed by children of all ages.”
The second phase of the design will see the addition of outdoor fitness equipment including a cross trainer and a fitness bike.
