CARDENDEN Environment Group members are very unhappy by wanton damage caused to the playpark they funded for children in the village.

Play equipment in Wallsgreen Park has been damaged with wooden panels being stripped away and other .

Both the big chute and little chute have been damaged by mindless youths and is in the process of being repaired.

The local Environment Group spent a lot of time and money getting this playpark upgraded and hope to add even more equipment, but if some youths presistently cause damage, it poses the question - 'Why Bother'.

Another local group is raising funds to upgrade other play playparks in the village for the benefit of the kids and it us up to them to look after it.

It has also been reported that some youths are playing with bikes on the new astro turf pitch.

This is only for football and bikes will soon damage the surface.
