I live not very far away from Felix Road Adventure Playground, which for four decades has provided opportunities for play for inner city children in Easton.
As regular readers will be aware, the playground has been under threat of closure ever since Bristol City Council made a mess of outsourcing play facilities around the city.
In response to this calamitous cock-up, local Easton residents organised a petition to save Felix Road (posts passim).
According to the Save Felix Road Twitter account, a debate on the playground will be held at a full meeting of Bristol City Council on 17th December as the petition has gained more than the required number of signatures to trigger a discussion in the council chamber.
I’ll await developments with interest as it’s not right that children in one of the most deprived parts of the city suffer when Bristol City Council cocks things up.
