About the project
We are helping Shirley Robertson Children’s Centre upgrade their outdoor space. A deck, ramp and steps with handrails will be installed. The sandpit and surrounds will be updated and a raised sand table will be added.
The ground level outdoor space will be extended under the covered outdoor space. A retractable awning will also be installed to provide more sun protection.
The new spaces will allow children of all abilities to play, learn and explore together.
