New slide for younger children
The Parish Council recently installed a new slide suitable for children under 5 on the playing field. The Council would like to thank the Kirkwhelpington Educational Trust for helping to fund the project. Additional funding also came from Northumberland County Council's development fund (S106) and the Parish Council.
The new slide in situ Lesley Silvera gave an informative update about the Wansbeck Restoration Project at the last Parish Council meeting. Click on the link to open a PDF of slides from the talk. At the end you'll find Lesley's contact details if you'd like any more information.

New bench installed
By request, a new bench has been installed by the Parish Council at the road end in front of the bus stop. It is hoped this will give walkers a spot to rest, and also a more inviting place to sit for those waiting for the bus. Thank you to all the volunteers and councillors involved in the installation.
New bench at Kirkwhelpington Play area improvements
The Parish Council have recently undertaken improvements to the play area in Kirkwhelpington. This includes replacing the basket swing and laying safety matting. A big thank you to all the volunteer who helped with this work and to the Ray Wind Fund for helping to fund the works. The Youth Group have already been making good use of the repaired swing.
