Raphael Park - New Play/Activitiy Area

We're really excited to tell you all that work on a new play area for Raphael Park is due to start sometime around October, with works hopefully being completed just before the end of the year (this is just a rough estimate and not an official timeline).

The new play area will be in the same location where the current play area is today.

You can see the video below that shows the new play site design. There is an overview of the design and then individual examples of the activities. Check it out:

Volunteers Needed

We are doing our best to keep up with all issues raised in our parks, but desperately need some volunteers to lighten the load. If we can spread the tasks among a larger number of volunteers our impact would be greater. If you are able to give up a few hours here and there we would really appreciate the help. Please either contact us through the website or email Julia on juliapreou@aol.com. We thank you in anticipation.
