Playground - volunteers

We're really keen to find some volunteers to help ensure Escrick continues to have a fun and well maintained playground.

Next time you visit the playground, you'll notice that unfortunately there's two fewer pieces of equipment than there used to be. 

Most of the playground dates back to 2005 and is now reaching the end of its life - so unfortunately these won't be the last pieces that have to be removed.

The playground is overseen and funded by the Escrick Playing Fields Association.  This is a charity founded by parents in the village to ensure each generation of children has somewhere to play.  The association raises money through events such as the Escrick 10k,  sponsored events (e.g. dragon boat race) and grant applications.

We're looking for the next generation of parents to get involved and share their ideas, energy and fund raising skills to buy and install the next generation of equipment for the playground.

If you are able to help, please contact Simon Hunt - playing.fields@escrick.org or Richard Rowson - chair@escrick.org
