Threats to Play Areas in Sinfin Ward

There are three Sinfin Play Areas out of the ten identified for the whole of the City of Derby by Derby City Council for closure:
- There is one on Sinfin Moor Park which is different from the other one there and one cannot replace the other
- there is one on Sinfin Lane Recreation Ground, and
- there is the one at Cotton Lane Activity Centre.
Three in Sinfin Ward out of ten play areas in Derby is not right!
It is unacceptable to us that we should lose any play facilities in addition to Sinfin Ward people having the former QDF site with waste handling facilities imposed on us.
We need more opportunities for children to be active in safe environments – not fewer.
We object to the council’s plan to close and not to improve our play areas and call on it to improve all of them so as to maximise the healthy opportunities for our children.
We ask you to sign our petition.
