Dear Conwy County Borough Council,

I make this request under the FOI rules and regulations. I would appreciate a speedy response in this matter if possible.

Please can you confirm how many PLAY PARKS there are in the Conwy council area that are managed/owned by you as an authority.

Out of the play parks that are under the ownership of the Council please can you confirm how many of them have apparatus confirmed within the park that is wheel chair accessible. I.e. a swing for wheel chair users or a merry go round that is wheelchair accessible and manufactured for this use.

I assume the number wont be high for any of these questions and look forward to a speedy response.

Yours faithfully,

Christopher James O'Neal

Please find information in response to your Freedom of Information

Answer: There are 132 Play Areas owned and managed by CCBC

Out of the play parks that are under the ownership of the Council please
can you confirm how many of them have apparatus confirmed within the park
that is wheel chair accessible?  I.e. a swing for wheel chair users or a
merry go round that is wheelchair accessible and manufactured for this
use.

 

I assume the number won’t be high for any of these questions and look
