The Parish Council manages Broomhall Recreation ground, a popular destination for the local community located at SL5 0QS. The Parish Council is proud of the grounds, with visitors often commenting that it is the best in the area, and it is both clean and safe. The site has good access and parking, and provides a range of facilities and general recreational use including:

• 3 Tennis Courts which are hired by members and non-members on an hourly basis with sports lighting that is token based
• Toddler / junior playground aimed at 0-12-year-olds
• Junior / teen playground aimed at 7-14-year-olds
• Outdoor fitness equipment
• Basketball and football goal (no surfacing)
• Seating, including benches, picnic tables and shelters
• Informal pathways
• Main recreational space / open ground for informal sports and leisure

In 2021 The Parish Council commissioned a feasibility study to explore opportunities to improve and develop facilities at Broomhall Recreation Ground, as well as a public consultation on the types of facilities and improvements that parishioners would like to see.

As a result, The Parish Council is now seeking to appoint via competitive tender one or more contractors to deliver a range of improvements including;

• The design, supply, and installation of a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA)
• The decommissioning and removal of the existing junior / teen playground and adult fitness area, and the provision of an appropriate surface to accommodate a new junior / teen playground
• The design, supply, and installation of a new junior / teenage playground
• The design, supply, and installation of new pathways for the site
• The refurbishment of the existing tennis courts

The tender will be split into lots, with further details provided in the tender documentation.
