Michael said: “I was delighted to open the new piece of disabled friendly equipment at Swanley Park.  I am particularly pleased that even more children will now be able to make the most of what the park has to offer.  With the impressive fundraising efforts of the Mayor of Swanley, Shanker Gaire, and the hard work of local councillors, I am sure this will be only the first of many improvements.”

Swanley Town Council has committed to building an extension to the existing playground in Swanley Park which will provide disability friendly and sensory playground equipment.  Cllr Gaire’s fundraising efforts are supporting this commitment and the council will shortly be inviting companies to submit bids and design ideas for the extension.
