Children in the area are 'really excited'
Parents living near a 30-year-old Nottingham park say it is "about time" that it was improved after a £100,000 upgrade was announced. The money will be spent on improving the equipment and facilities on offer at the Ronald Street play area in Radford, which Nottingham City Council describes as "rapidly reaching end of life."
Parents with children who use the Ronald Street play area are now hopeful that work will start soon. Darin Sabaty, 42, said: "My children do use the play area already but of course we would use it more if it was improved."It is important for the area so I'm definitely pleased that they have confirmed this money being spent now." Ida Njie, 40, said: "It's about time and we're hoping that this is done as soon as possible.
Abdul Balloul, 40, added: "My children do use it already but they saw the pictures in the survey showing what the park could look like and it got them really excited. We're all really behind this project and if the council wants any volunteers to help them, we're definitely ready to do that."
