2022 Season Upgrades for the Park

Ahead of the opening of Swanley Park in April, there has been some significant investment and changes.

New for 2022 saw the upgrade of our boating fleet.

We have introduced six new Swan Pedalos to the park, which have already proved very popular with the public.

We also have three new Rowing Boats to add to our Boating Lake.

In addition to these, and new for the start of the season, is our Changing Places Facility.

This was installed in October 2021 and is designed to be completely accessible, to provide sufficient space and equipment for those who are not able to use the toilet independently.

This project was part funded by donations and grants including those from The National Lottery, The Bruce Wake Trust and Crowdfunding.

Throughout the course of the closed season we have resurfaced some of the main paths leading into and around the park.

These have been widened and upgraded to block paving, this is a more durable material and will prevent flooding and puddles on the paths in winter months.

Parks and Open Spaces Manager, George Brooker stated “We are very pleased with how popular the new Swan Pedalos have been and are very excited to expand our fleet with the new rowing boats.

This year is an exciting year for the park as we continue to improve upon our existing activities and facilities.”

The park is now fully open (Weather Dependent) on weekends and school holidays with The Barnyard Indoor Soft Play open every day.
