Plans have been submitted to build a new Multi-Activity Hub in Sheffield’s Hillsborough Park, which will include all new tennis courts, a multi-use games area, mini golf, a new café and more.
Sheffield playgrounds and leisure facilities revamped
An estimated £1.4million has been invested in improvements to playgrounds and outdoor leisure facilities across the city, right in time for the summer holidays, which are now in full swing.
New facilities include new basketball courts, improved pathways to give greater access to greenspaces and woodlands, green gyms and even a fruit orchard.
Six playgrounds have benefitted from more than half a million pounds in investment, and have been kitted out with new and improved facilities.
Playgrounds in Oxley Park, Hollinsend Park, Ecclesfield Park, Ellesmere Park, Frecheville Park and Batemoor Park have all been improved with new play equipment and more.
On top of this, an additional 900K has been spent on tennis courts, sports courts and wider park infrastructure.
Just last month, Ecclesfield Park tennis courts officially reopened following renovations, as well as new basketball courts in Ellesmere Park.
