Accessible trampoline

Wembdon Parish Council apologises for the continued unavailability of the accessible trampoline.

Following the vandalism on 7th March in which two of the rubber edging tiles had been wrenched out and thrown into the rhyne, we had been hoping to be able to do the repairs ourselves, and had been waiting for suitable weather. However when two of our Parish Councillors attempted the work yesterday, they found that the damage was more extensive than they had realised and that some of the rubber crumb surround will also have to be replaced. Definitely not a DIY job!

We are seeking a quotation from the supplier, and will arrange for the repair to be carried out as quickly as possible. Meanwhile, the trampoline will have to remain fenced off for safety reasons.

Young children’s swings

We have arranged with a local contractor for the framework of the swings to be repainted. The work will be carried out in the next week or so, subject to suitable weather conditions. In preparation, we have removed the chains and seats, and will replace them as soon as possible after the repainting.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused by this essential work.
