£500,000 Bonnymead Play Park refurbishment opens

Bonnymead Play Park has reopened following a £500,000 refurbishment designed to provide more inclusive and engaging play opportunities for local children and families.

Located on the Recreation Ground beside the River Avon, the long-standing play area had been identified as being in urgent need of modernisation. The Town Council prioritised the project in 2025 and funded the investment from its financial reserves.

Designed by outdoor play specialist Proludic, the transformed park features seven distinct areas offering activities for children of different ages and abilities.
