Residents will know that an upgrade to the Mill Lane play area is a Parish Council priority for this year and we wish to involve as wide a group as possible in its design. As part of this parents and children from Copdock Primary school and pre-school will have the chance today to see the different layouts and equipment proposed by the four companies approached and provide feedback that will help us optimise whatever design and configuration we go with.

Any parents and children not involved with the school can also attend and get involved between 3.30pm and 4pm.

We are also running a survey monkey process to ensure that our application to Babergh District Council for funding support is grounded in the broadest community mandate possible. If not already done, the Parish Council would appreciate residents giving a minute or two of their time to complete. The more responses we gather, the stronger our prospects..

We will continue to keep residents advised of progress.
