It’s unfair for children to be expected to play on this park. It has not been updated for many years and it’s unsafe.

We use this park regularly and it needs to brought upto date and made safe
The coloured flooring is so dangerous it is slippery as ice because it is always mossy

Hi Marilyn,
Fabulous - if you want to link up and coordinate our efforts I am happy to do so, please let me know. This petition feeds into a mandate that includes a review various government reports, a review of the playground from a health and safety perspective and pledges from local children.
There are 4 parks in Leeds that do not currently meet Leeds Parks Quality Standard or hold a Green Flag Status awards - Western Flatts being one of them, a report in 2018 advised funding be allocated to these parks, unfortunately this hasn't happened since the report was published.
I am also currently exploring the possibility of an article with the Yorkshire Evening Post on this matter too.
Kind regards,
Lucy

I love taking my little girl on this park as it’s such a lovely place to walk around however the playground is very run down and needs updating! There are screws missing from parts of the framework and it is unsafe for kids to go on!
