Football LED wall, gym equipment and running track coming as £740,000 regeneration of Thompson Park begins.

Jody Graham: Definitely will need security! Great to see investment but some have no respect these days sadly.

Naomi Mather:

Great to see investment in our young people.

Joanne Storey:

Will it have anything on for disabled children, my son loves the park but his never been able to enjoy it properly as he can't access everything.

Southwick Residents:

It’ll have new inclusive equipment so lots more children can access it.

Sharon Cleminson:

Amazing, this sounds like a great investment, but I fear that in time it will become vandalised, I pray and hope it will be respected.

Rebecca Maw:

Isn’t this great! Can’t wait for it to be finished. We regularly use the park and it is fantastic to see this investment in our kids health and well-being. Well done.

Lynsey King: You know all kids want is to go somewhere to have a kick about, but all the green space in Sunderland is covered in dog muck. It's disgusting.

Ger Fowler: Absolutely brilliant, well done to all involved.

Claire Kaur Fleming: This will be brilliant. I love the garden centre and it will be a decent training field. The kids need something like this. Roker Park gets kept nice so I can't see why this one can't be.

Graham Robinson: Great idea.

Lindsey Leonard: Brilliant addition to the park.

Scag Sunderland: Great news for the area.

The Victory Club: Any money left in the pot for a little grass seed and soil to fill in the holes on the pitches?

Rebecca Higgins: Sounds like it will be amazing!

Vivian Wilkinson: Looking good.
