The Present Law Play Park Area
Following two years of hard work included
public meetings, public exhibitions plus
extensive consultations with the Community
of Law, especially Primary Six and Seven
School Children at Law Primary School.
Law Community Trust are pleased to
announce that they have been successful in
obtaining funding from Forward Scotland
£30,000. The Renewable Energy Foundation
£30,000 and South Lanarkshire Council,
£17,500 (in kind) for the total replacement of
the Play Park Equipment in Law Play Park,
Lawhill Road.
£60,000 of the funding is for New Play Park
Equipment; the rest is for the upgrading and
enlargement of the existing car park plus the
removal of existing equipment and the
reinstatement of the Play Park Land.
South Lanarkshire Council Community
Resources will be project managers,
reporting to the Committee of Law
Community Trust.
Once complete, the Play Park will be
Managed and maintained by South
Lanarkshire Council’s Community
Resources.
Tendering for the equipment will
Commence almost immediately and it
may be possible the installation of the
first pieces of New Play Park
Equipment will begin by the end 2009.
Hopefully.
Law Community Trust will continue to
Seek additional funding for another
two/three Play Equipment Units for the
Play Park.
