CHELMSLEY Wood police officers got theirhands dirty when they helped build a new adventure playground in Meriden Park.
The playground, which has been funded by theNational Lottery, aims to provide the local youths with an exciting and funarea to play in, with a tyre swing, woodwork area that doubles up as a rain shelter, and a water area to splash about in.
Sergeant Mark Cowl and his team were keen to get involved with the project and working alongside the park’s play leaders andpark rangers, they got their shovels out to dig up ground to create the new features.
Sgt Cowl added: “As local neighbourhood officers, we are always looking for different diversionary activities for th local youths to take part in and encourage them to stay out of trouble.
“The new adventure playground allows the kids to hang out with their friends as well as learn new skills from the playleaders, including building and growing their own fruit and vegetables.”
