We'd like to say these are 'behind the scenes' images of our latest play space works, but they're right out in the open! We're carrying out some serious rejuvenation works at Hadleigh Memorial Recreation ground and South Benfleet Playing Fields - stay tuned!

Can you guess what classic playground fixture this will be once it's finished? The play area at South Benfleet Playing Fields is having a makeover at the moment, so it's temporarily closed, but we can't wait to welcome you back to see the final result!
