The Parish Council confirmed today that they will move forward with the playground project exactly as we asked. I am genuinely stunned by the outcome and I have all of you to thank for sticking with this until the end. Please keep an eye on the site as the work …

In 2012 the working party, “Barnetby Field Group”, assembled by the Parish Council, sent out questionnaires to all households in the village. The results showed the majority of villagers (71%) wished to see the playground re-developed as the priority.
Whilst it has been wonderful to see the developments on the recreational field the Parish Council have so far neglected to take these results into account and in the past 5 years the playground has entered into a worst state of repair.
Recent minutes from the Parish Council/Trustee to the Recreational Field have implied that they have secured funding for the 0-5 zone, including a pledge of £12,850 from Barnetby Under Fives. However they are now proposing to use this funding to re-develop the 6+ zone with, as yet, no publicised guarantee or time frame for the upgrade 0-5 zone of the playground.
We the undersigned demand that the Parish Council/Trustee to the Recreational Field re-develops the village playground as a whole project. If funding is unavailable for the whole project then we demand that the Parish Council/Trustee to the Recreational Field keeps to its original plan and prioritises the re-development of the 0-5 zone.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many of you have stepped up to support this cause. It is truly humbling to see such a strong community response for our village children. This momentum belongs entirely to all of you who refuse to stay silent.

The village as a whole will benefit having a modern and safe playground. We have been here 5/6 years now and only taken our kids to the surrounding villages playgrounds. Lets get this sorted as a priorty for 2017 !
Please just build a new park no fancy designs costing thousands just new stuff the swings are the same swings I played on 36 years ago..shocking
If you the council have received funding for the under 5. This is where you should spend the money. Any future funding can be for the 6+ area.
This was promised years ago when my boys where at playschool x they are now 11 and 12 and still nothing for under fives and the toddlers
This has supposed to have been happening since my son was a baby, he is now five. Barnetby parish council should be ashamed with the state the park is left in! And as for putting a fence around the terrible equipment?! What was the thought process there! This should be done as a priority for our village not wasting money on things which are not as desperately needed!!
There were plans shown on upgrading the childs play area when the skate park, village hall upgrade took place. What happened?
This is an area that needs improvement

Barnetby needs a safe and stimulating place for our young ones to play - everyone else has something ( M.U.G.A., SKATE PARK, FOOTBALL FACILITIES, OUTDOOR GYM). It was needed 8 years ago. It is still needed now.
