New children's playground set to open at Leonardslee Gardens

The park – designed for children of all ages – includes a five metre multi-level champion tree tower, a 32.5m zipline ride, teepee dens, balancing beams and an array of swings.

Adults can also join in the fun with inclusive areas, double-width slides, and Tango seats for intergenerational play, enabling parents and carers to join their children in fostering imagination and promoting physical development.

There is also a dedicated junior area tailored for toddlers and pre-schoolers, complete with a miniature Leonardslee House, interactive kitchen, and creative drawing station.
