Belper Play Areas Get An Update
Play areas across Belper have been improved, just in time for summer. The updates have been delivered by Amber Valley Borough Council.
More than £90,000 has been invested to improve three play areas in Belper. Whitehouse Rise has had a complete makeover providing new play equipment and seating. The Scotches has been extended to provide a trim trail and Whitemoor Recreation Ground has benefitted from an outdoor gym, table tennis and a fixed tennis net.
Amber Valley Borough Council’s Portfolio Holder for the Environment, Councillor David Wilson said: “This investment is providing free-of-charge fun activities for all age ranges. The Council is committed to developing our parks and open spaces, and this is a great way of improving people’s health at the same time.”
Bringing tennis back to Whitemoor looks likely to be a popular move. Players do not need to book, just turn up with your racket or paddle and ball and it’s game, set and match!
Great but what about Ambergate rec? Not been updated in years and council not helpful.
