Parish Play Areas
Play Areas
Horndean Parish Council owns and maintains six play facilities across the Parish, which cater for a range of ages. All of the facilities are regularly inspected and maintained to ensure they are safe to use and fully functional. There is also an ongoing programme of upgrades that - with the aid of grant funding, has seen major improvement works take place at Five Heads Rec and Jubilee Park over the last three years.
After securing additional grant funding, 2026 will see further major upgrades at Jubilee Park, with the creation of a dedication Multi Use Games Arena (MUGA) - similar to the below picture, and the replacement of the aging outdoor gym equipment.
