Efforts to improve play facilities in Woodhouse and Spring Bank will be discussed next week.

Play opportunities for children and young people are on the agenda of the area's neighbourhood forum.

For several months councillors and residents have been working on ideas for a playground on land between Woodhouse and Spring Bank.

One current suggestion being explored is to use the land for cycling activities.

People attending the forum will also be able to talk with police officers about local crime and community safety issues.

The forum, which is open to everyone, is on Thursday (September 26) at 7pm at Hainworth Wood Community Centre on Woodhouse Road.
