Tesco Park Benches.

A big thank you to the Tesco 'bags of help' grant and to the Parks Department of the City and County of Swansea for the 3 picnic benches which have now been installed in the park. Something we can all look forward to using when the weather improves!

Green Flag 2017

The Friends of Coed Bach Park and the Our Place team are pleased to announce that we have retained the Community Green Flag award which covers the 2nd woods area for another year.
It has been a great effort by the Our Place team who constructed the (short lived but another on the way wigwam) and the FOCBP members and also the Council Park team who have all worked together to make the woods a great area to visit.

And the other news is. There is more to come, so watch this space.........

During this quiet time of the year news of major Park activities becomes a little quiet.

But like all good groups we are constantly out and about in the Park keeping ourselves busy with the little things in life.

Keep Wales Tidy recently visited the Park to inspect the 2nd woods area to see if we have retained our Green Flag Award which we won in 2016.
Members of the FOCBP and Our Place team took the judge (Zoe) around the park and pointed out work that was being carried out, and what our future plans were with regards to the area.
We will let you know the result when we have it.

After the success of last years 5K Carnival Fun Run which was held in the park, another one will take place this year on Saturday 17th June.

If you want to take part please contact Andrew on 07866 622877

Due to the continued vandalism attacks on the Wigwam we will no longer be reporting the issues on our Social Media sites as we believe whoever is doing it is gaining their own kudos by knowing they are causing a public outrage.

However the Our Place team will not give up and every time the work is destroyed they will return to rebuild it.

Also worth noting that even when the vandalism occurs, the local kids come back and help us rebuild it.
Whoever you are you wont stop the younger kids or anyone else from having fun in our park!
