A special meeting of Blaenhonddan community council yesterday approved estimates for repairs to playground equipment across the community. These will bring swings, roundabouts, slides and so on up to current standards and will be initiated as soon as practicable.

We also endorsed  a rolling programme of improvements to surfaces in the playgrounds. Because finance is still tight, this will have to be spread over the next two or three financial years, but rest assured that Cadoxton will be given high priority.

Older members of the council stated that there was a rolling programme in the past, but seem unclear as to why it ceased. All I can say is that there was no sign of it when I was elected in 2008, and that I am mightily relieved that it is under way now.
