More play equipment!

East Lothian Council's Amenity Services are a busy lot with responsibility for all 30 public parks in the area.  Additionally, they look after:

• 624ha of grass                   
• 2 golf courses
• 47km of coastline               
• 159ha of woodlands          
• 37 burial grounds
• 14 ha of shrubs                   
• 800 litterbins
• 110 play areas                    
• 270km rights of way
• 91 grass sports pitches       
• 41,712km of roadside kerbs!              

This week, Amenity Services installed two new pieces of play equipment in the park.

Both items are from Inclusive Play whose vision is to design, develop and manufacture quality products that enable children – no matter what their ability – to play together.

Watching other things move can be engaging and therapeutic. 

The Collider central panel rotates to allow the bearings to drop and fall making a sound.

The Tactile Topiary play panel provides a number of different tactile experiences such as spinning and moving counters - great for developing coordination and practising fine motor skills.

We were delighted to learn that an inclusive roundabout will be installed shortly - more about this later.
