Issue details

Following the Scrutiny Review of Outdoor Play Provision, in April of 2024, the Crime and Disorder Select Committee (now renamed) recommended that officers should prepare a strategy (later approved by Cabinet) which includes the following elements:

•           The Council’s aims in relation to the provision of outdoor play spaces.

•           The locations and assessments of existing and outdoor play provision, as well as any planned developments.

•           The key challenges associated with providing these spaces.

•           How the Council will seek to address these key challenges (including guiding principles).

This document is the second appearance to Cabinet designed to:

•           Understand the implications of the previously agreed principles of management of our portfolio of play facilities

•           Agree the actions to be taken when enacting the full strategy to individual play sites.
