The Playpark

Everyone is so proud about the Play Park. The original play park had become dilapidated and in response local residents organised the Play Moor, Skate Moor community group to tackle this. Working with Ann to consult with the community, they then worked with council colleagues (our colleagues from Environmental Services were great partners) to raise the £120,000 to make this happen. The Play Park was opened on 4 July 2019 and as you can see from the second photo it was an immediate success. Play is fundamentally important to the development of all children.

The Skatepark

Turlin Moor, home to over 2,300 children and young people, has long lacked safe spaces for older kids and teens. Following the success of a new children's playpark, the community is now driving plans for a modern skatepark on a disused site at the heart of the estate. Led by Poole Communities Trust and local group Play Moor Skate Moor, and designed with Maverick Skateparks, the project will provide inclusive facilities for all abilities. More than just a skatepark, it aims to strengthen community ties, boost wellbeing, and create positive opportunities for you people.
