Bringing New Life to Play: The Refurbishment of Wimborne St Giles Playground

Published: 19 November 2025

In the heart Wimborne St Giles a playground that, over the years, had begun to show its age. Worn equipment, faded colours, and uneven surfaces has been given a new lease of life, thanks to a concerted effort by Knowlton Parish Council, a grant from Knowlton Community Benefit Fund and support from Wimborne St Giles First School.

Uneven surfaces have been repaired and worn wooden structures have been replaced. The playground is regularly used by the first school and local residents, it is a space where friendships are made and imaginations can grow.

Knowlton Parish Council would like to thank Creative Play who gave the playground the uplift it needed.
