Expansion and improvement of Leasingham Play Park work completed.
The work is now complete at Leasingham play park.
The final few pieces of equipment and safety surfacing have been installed over the last few days, and the park is now fully open and ready to be played in.
It's hoped that the weather cooperates and the children and families can enjoy the new play equipment over the bank holiday weekend.
Thanks once again to those that have supported the Parish Council's project. Including; the FCC, the National Lottery, Leasingham Village Scarecrow Festival, and all the organisers and players of the monthly bingo sessions at Leasingham Village Hall.

The Landfill Communities Fund and Scottish Landfill Communities Fund - any waste that is discarded which cannot be reused, reprocessed or recycled may ultimately be disposed of in a
landfill site. To encourage the re-use, recycle and recovery of more value from waste and use more environmentally friendly methods of waste disposal, Landfill Tax is charged on each tonne of waste sent to landfill. Landfill Operators (LOs) are able to redirect a small proportion of landfill tax liability to support a wide range of community and environmental projects in the vicinity of
landfill sites through the Landfill Communities Fund (LCF) and Scottish Landfill Communities
Fund (SLCF). The LCF is regulated by ENTRUST on behalf of HM Revenue & Customs, and the
projects are delivered by enrolled Environmental bodies (EBs). The SLCF is regulated by SEPA on behalf of Revenue Scotland and projects are delivered by Approved Bodies (ABs).
