Children's play facilities - Seel Park, Dinas Powys

Children's play facilities - Seel Park, Dinas Powys

The Issue

We are campaigning for Seel Park to be refurbished and updated.

Dinas Powys has approximately 9000 residents. The upgraded play area at Murch has only highlighted the neglect of Seel Park which comes under the Vale of Glamorgan.  In addition, the park is virtually inaccessible for those with pushchairs or mobility issues.  Seel Park is the only available park on the Eastbrook side of Dinas Powys, allowing children to both play in the park and have an open space for football etc.

As we all know there has been a substantial amount of additional housing built in Dinas Powys. It is a requirement from the developers to ensure that the local community benefits from these additional houses.  This is known as Section 106.  Over the last couple of years under Section 106 the Vale of Glamorgan has received roughly £10 million pounds.  Currently there is £300,000 waiting to be used for the benefit of Dinas Powys residents, however it is yet to be spent.

We are requesting that some of this money is used to upgrade Seel Park. Please sign this petition and support the Children of Dinas Powys.
