New Crianlarich playpark
Children from Crianlarich Nursery opened a new play tower in the village playpark.
Play equipment was removed from the playpark 15 months ago after failing health and safey checks.
New equipment was purchased and installed in a joint project carried out by Stirling Council and Strathfillan Community Development Trust (SCDT).
Donations for the equipment came from SCDT, Friends of Loch Lomond, Crianlarich Nursery Parent Group and customers at the Londis Crianlarich Store.
The £2850 raised by them was matched by Stirling Council, who also arranged the installation.
Crianlarich Nursery depute Alex Tigwell said:“It is great to have the new park play equipment in place as it will greatly increase the scope of the physical activity options we can offer the children”.
Trossachs and Teith councillor Martin Earl, who helped SCDT with the match funding, said:“I’d like to thank all those who have worked hard to have these improvements put in place.
“The community and council officers have worked together on the project towards an improved play area with brand new, high-quality equipment for the children to enjoy.”
The new eqipment is an adventure tower for younger children, a slide, climbing wall, tunnel and play towers. SCDT and Stirling Council hope to install a roundabout in the next few weeks.
