The grass in the childrens play area is far too long. It’s half term so the play equipment is being well used, but the grass is so long it has grass darts and is a haven for ticks-both are a potential health hazard for children. The only areas of this park that have been mowed are the football pitches. Also, the main path down the centre of the park badly needs the hedges trimmed back

    A section of the grass in the older childrens play area has been mowed, but there is still a lot of long grass with grass darts. These are a haven for ticks and therefore a health hazard. The younger childrens play area has not been mowed at all (see photo with swing in it) Please send the contractor back to do their job properly. Thank you
