Ward Councillors in Swinton Rockingham Ward have been helping to deliver improvements in the local area.

Painting at Thomas Street Park

Swinton Rockingham Ward Councillors have been testing their painting skills at Thomas Street Park. Thanks to funding from the Housing Team, paint was purchased to breathe new life into the goal posts and frame to the children's swings in the play area. We hope you agree they look much better now.

New fencing installed

Ward Councillors were made aware that young people were jumping down a very high wall between Highfield Park and Highfield Court. Due to the height of the wall Councillors were concerned someone would get injured taking a dangerous shortcut.

Thanks to funding from their Ward Budget and the Council's Green Spaces Team, new fencing has now been installed. Residents of Highfield Court are delighted with the new fencing.
