Blakeney Recreation Community Group’s story
Our Story
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused disproportionate harm to the education, social lives and mental wellbeing of so many young people and children. It has highlighted how vitally important it is for the youngest members of our society to be able to play and engage with their peers in safe environments outdoors.
The play equipment in the recreation area in Blakeney had proved to be a lifeline for many local families during the time our freedom to travel further afield was restricted. However, in early 2021, it was deemed unsafe following an annual safety inspection and had to be removed at short notice, leaving only a swing as an opportunity to play for a community of 250+ children.
Disappointment about the lack of play equipment voiced by the community compelled a number of residents to form the Blakeney Recreation Community Group to fundraise for and manage the development of a new playground for local children.
