A greener Rochford
Rochford District Council is about to change the way we manage our parks - Take part in our consultation to help beat Climate Change.
We asked you, the residents to complete a short survey which will help us put together our plan of action. The survey is now closed, but you can still view the information about the plans on the www.parksfornature.co.uk website.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Most recreation grounds located around the District provide football pitches. Find out more about how to book football pitches online.
Please be aware that play spaces across the district will be monitored and the council will not hesitate to close them if social distancing is not maintained.
To stay safe you must adhere to the following guidance:
- There will be a maximum number of people permitted at any one time (including parents/guardians/carers) – please see the information below for details regarding each individual play space.
- Always maintain 2m social distancing
- Where possible, only one parent, carer or guardian per child
- You are advised to sanitise your hands with 60% alcohol sanitiser before and after use of the equipment
- Where possible clean down touch points and handles before play with a disinfectant wipe
- Please be considerate to others when using the equipment
- Food and drink is prohibited inside the play area
- Please take your litter home with you
- No dogs allowed
- Please do not travel to a play area if you have COVID symptoms, and ensure you and your household self-isolate.
- We would remind those using the equipment (and parents/guardians/carers) not to touch their faces, and to cough or sneeze into a tissue or arm when a tissue is not available.
- Please keep dogs under effective control and/or on a lead.
