Unfortunately the playground at Dodderbrook Gardens has been left in a sorry state recently.

Residents have had to clear large amounts of litter around the area, there has also been some antisocial behaviour from local teens, resulting in the RA having to make the decision to remove the bench from the area.

Additionally the two children’s benches have also been broken and are no longer fit for use.

There has been considerable damage to the surface of the roundabout, this started out as a small break in the surface but it has been noted that most of this had been damaged intentionally.

It took considerable time for Capami to repair the roundabout previously, it’s not clear if they’ll continue to maintain this.

Lastly, there is a significant amount of dog foul around the playground. If you own a dog, be responsible and pick up after it.
