Playground Issues

Eastoft Community Welfare Association, Playground

Just to let you all know why the Playground is still not open and to make you aware of the issues involved.

We have real issues with the safety of the playground at the moment which means that we cannot get insurance at present until all the issues are resolved.

Therefore, it is for the safety and wellbeing of all users that the playground is not opened at present. We will of course sing loud and clear when we can finally open it once again.

ROSPA (playground inspection) have been involved and we await their report which they said would be with us this week to confirm or otherwise our concerns and any they find.

However, the contractors have now agreed there are issues which they have found but unfortunately, they have so far not agreed to meet us on site to discuss.

We are in contact with them very regularly and are seeking a resolution that satisfies the safety and usage issues which we know of and any that ROSPA find.

We hope that this clears up why we cannot and will not open the playground until it is safe.

ECWA Goes Green

We have taken steps to reduce our energy consumption, lowering our carbon emissions for our local community village hall.  The Eastoft Community Welfare Association  have invested in Infrared heating with full control. This will make a huge difference to the environment  and heating costs and this is just the start of our sustainable journey.

£500 GRANT

To help us invest in these energy saving measures we had support from Smart Energy Greater Lincolnshire. Through this we received a grant of £500 to enable us to make these fantastic changes.

The £9.2 million Smart Energy programme has been part funded by the European Regional Development fund. This is enabling small to medium businesses across the Greater Lincolnshire area invest in energy saving technology.
