A fresh new look is coming to children's play areas across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole as part of a major upgrade. A total of £746,200 will be invested to improve five playgrounds as part of BCP Council's £4.6 million Plan for Play strategy, which aims to upgrade 120 play areas across the region. The play areas set for refurbishment are Noyce Gardens, Mallard Road, Muscliff Park, King's Park and Bourne Valley.
