Thornhill Park Officially Opened

On 25th September 2009 local residents, school children from Thornhill and Hightown primary schools and distinguished guests were joined by The Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, The Right Honourable John Denham MP, to officially open the new play area at Thornhill Park. The celebration marked the completion of the improvement project which focussed on improved access pathways, lighting, seating, signage, improved visibility in the woodland, and a vastly improved play area.

Groundwork Solent secured £237,000 for the capital improvements project and £5,000 revenue funding to sustain the long term future of the woodland. A ‘Friends of Thornhill Park’ group was established comprising local residents, local councillors and agency representatives who will work in partnership with the local authority to ensure that the targets set out in the project will continue to be met now that the improvements project is complete.
