A new children’s playground has been officially opened in Bewbush. 

Millpond Playground has new slides, climbing frames, see-saws and swings all set on a soft play surface and in a fenced-in space. 

The revamped site is also expected to become a hub for the community through a collaboration between Crawley Borough Council and the Inspire Castle Group.  The Group is expected to lease the building next to the playground from the council as it looks to engage a number of other community services within the building.
