BRENTFORD AND CH I SW I CK EXTENDED SERVICES INTRODUCTION Welcome to the summer 2010 edition of What’s On in Brentford and Chiswick. There continues to be lots of activities in the Cluster which we want to share with you. As the Lead Head in the Cluster, I am excited by the range of experiences on offer to our young people through Extended Services and have been enormously pleased to witness young people, being successful participants in a great many learning activities to enhance their learning and have fun. The many partners involved in the Extended Services Cluster play an important part in improving the life chances of the young people of Brentford and Chiswick, helping to ensure their safety and well-being and enhancing their enjoyment. Cathy Driscoll Chair of Extended Services Committee (Brentford & Chiswick Cluster) DUKES MEADOWS PLAY AREA NOW OPEN! The new play area on Dukes Meadows is now fully open to the public. It is one of the biggest playgrounds in the neighbourhood. It consists of two parts – the Mounds and Hollows area and the area south of the path. The children can enjoy playing using the formal equipment such as climbing frames and structures, bridges, a zip wire, a nest swing and a massive slide which without doubt is the absolute winner. The play area was designed to meet the needs of both disabled and able-bodied children. It also has an accessible roundabout and a super wide slide. Apart from the play equipment, the space gives children the opportunity to discover different textures, such as stones, sand and bark. The equipment areas have ramps and are wheelchair accessible.
