Statement about Harwoods and Harebreaks Adventure Playground
October 29, 2009 2:59 PM
Contrary to reports in the media, Watford Borough Council has not banned parents from public parks and playgrounds in the town!
The press have inaccurately reported what Harwoods and Harebreaks are; they are not open public facilities. They never have been. They are closed, fully supervised facilities.
They are no different to other fully supervised facilities, like schools, playgroups or nurseries - where adults are not allowed to stay.
Parents and carers are, of course, welcome to bring their children safely into the sites and settle them in.
If parents aren't happy leaving their children - there are lots of other options open to them. In the town, there are 4 community centres, 5 children's centres, over 40 areas of park and playgrounds, as well as a museum, two libraries... These are also free to attend and open to everyone.
