£0.5m Chafford Hundred forum park bid


Chafford Hundred Community Forum, backed by your Councillors (Garry, Simon, Stephen and I) and Thurrock Council, recently launched the project to transform a piece of derelict land in Chafford Hundred into a new park for the local community.

The land, adjacent to Rainbow Road and Warren Lane hasn't been used for over a decade and is overgrown with weeds and shrubs. Plans include turning the land into a beautiful park with a nature area, play equipment, and an 'outdoor gym' with fitness equipment. It will be fully accessible to disabled children and adults.

Chair of Chafford Hundred Community Forum, Philomena Cleavely said: "I have lived and campaigned for Chafford for 13 years and we are now so close in achieving a fantastic park facility - something that we desperately need for this area.

This is fantastic news. I know the previous councillors and forum members worked hard to get this land "reserved", so its great to see its been handed to the new committee to complet the project.

IT looks like a large lawned area. Where's the facilities mentioned, we dont need another lawn for the kids to get bored on, give them something to do

As previous comment where are all the facilities mentioned, just looks like an over grown weed infested grass area. That will soon be covered in dog mess like all the cycle tracks and paths in Chafford. Thurrock Council should be ashamed considering what council tax we have to pay!!!!!!!!!!!
