Morwenstow Active Health
The new facilities compliment the existing children's play area at the Playing Fields.
We have a 7 piece outdoor fitness area. This can be used by up to 12 users at once. This is located next to the children's play area. Great to be able to exercise while your children play.
We have a tarmac pump track that is suitable for use by all manner of wheeled apparatus. You can use your bike, skateboard, scooter or even roller skates to master the curves and turns of our pump track.
Children even enjoy running around it, if they don't have their sports equipment!
The last and largest addition to this project is the Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA). We are able to take bookings for exclusive use of this space with or without sports equipment, at an incredibly reasonable rate. We also able to offer free play after school times and at weekend afternoons.
The MUGA is intended for public use and is a ‘self-service’ site.
However, some slots are bookable; please check the timetable posted online at: www.morwenstowparish.gov.uk/active-health, before commencing play to make sure it is free.
Bookings will always take priority over free use.
If you are required to vacate when a pre-booked timed slot comes up, please do so without argument.
