HS2<\/a> has granted Fradley and Streethay Parish Council<\/a> in Staffordshire \u00a375,000 to refurbish Streethay Play Park and make it more accessible to all age groups<\/h2>\n

Nearby housing residents have highlighted the popularity of the green space<\/a>, with new equipment planned to include a zip wire and a roundabout that will be accessible to wheelchair users.<\/p>\n

The council will also create areas aimed at catering to adults and teens by providing exercise machines and a cleared area for ball games.<\/p>\n

In addition to the new equipment, the parish council also plans to establish a new woodland area, installing bird houses, insect hotels, and bat boxes that will blend the site with the local environment and provide a nearby home for bugs, butterflies, bees and birds.<\/p>\n

Funding for the refurbishment was awarded through the Community and Environment fund<\/a> set up by HS2. The fund allows local community groups and organisations to apply for funding, with 175 projects already receiving over \u00a310m to date.<\/p>\n

\u2018An important investment in the future of the local area\u2019<\/h3>\n

Cathy Elliot, independent chair of HS2 CEF Funds, said: \u201cThe renewal of Streethay\u2019s Play Park is an important investment in the future of the local area that will also provide local young people and families with a place they can connect to local wildlife. I\u2019m pleased the parish council has been successful in securing funding for this project.”<\/p>\n

\u201cThe HS2 Funds are available to support local communities and businesses that are impacted by the construction of HS2<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018Fantastic news for Streethay\u2019<\/h3>\n

Streethay parish councillor Kath Hull also commented: \u201cThis is fantastic news for Streethay and we are looking forward to providing some new facilities at this very popular play area.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe new equipment will include a wheelchair-accessible roundabout and some sensory equipment as well as a new path to provide better access to the school. We are also adding a zip wire and some fitness equipment so that there is benefit for all ages.\u201d<\/p>\n
