Additional equipment at the Recreation Ground Find out about our plans to improve the play equipment in the Recreation Ground! Share your views on those plans! North Somerset Council will be giving Banwell Parish Council Section 106 developer contribution of £19,000 from the Taylors Field Development (currently known as Bilbie Grange). This money has to be used to increase capacity of play equipment on the Recreation Ground at Westfield Road. The Parish Council is proposing to increase the amount of play equipment and improve existing equipment. Unfortunately, it cannot be used for Riverside Play Area which the Parish Council will be looking at after the water- logged area has been resolved. Previous ideas for the Recreation Ground have included; a zipline, seesaw, merry go round, teen shelter, climbing wall, picnic tables and path all the way around the field. Other suggestions include, outside ping pong table, play cabin, outdoor fitness equipment. Banwell Recreation Ground Trustees would welcome your views and comments about potential new equipment. Please either;  Complete the short survey below and return it to Banwell Children’s Centre before the 8th April.  Complete the survey online - www.banwellparishcouncil.org.uk and follow the link on the News tab.  View suggested ideas and make your comments in person on the 6th April at Banwell Childrens Centre between 10am and 1pm. Your personal details will remain confidential and will not be retained after the consultation. The consultation will end at 12 o’clock on Monday 8th April 2019

PLEASE NOTE: All Parish Council Meetings and Recreation Ground Trust Meetings will now be at Banwell Children's Centre (at the bottom of West Street Car-Park).

The plans to develop the site for new homes on ‘Land to the West of Wolvershill Road’, (located between the entrance to Wolvershill Park and the property known as Rookery Nook) are at an early stage and the developers want to involve the local community in developing their proposals. This is your opportunity to have you say. It is a ‘drop in’ session and the development team will be available to answer questions and listen to people’s thoughts and suggestions.

Notice is hereby given that due to resignations, two vacancies have occurred among the members of the Parish Council.
