Parents are raising concerns about climbing equipment at Chapelfield Gardens, calling for clearer guidance on how children should use it.
Parents have raised safety concerns about play equipment at Chapelfield Gardens in Norwich.
Some families say part of the climbing frame can be confusing for younger children and fear they could accidentally fall from height while trying to navigate the equipment.
They are calling for clearer signs or markings explaining how that section of the climbing frame is intended to be used.
Chapelfield Gardens is one of Norwich city centre’s most popular green spaces and its playground is designed for toddlers, children and young people.
Norwich City Council says its play areas are regularly inspected as part of routine maintenance designed to keep equipment clean and safe.
The authority’s maintenance programme includes safety inspections, checking play surfaces and carrying out repairs where problems are identified either by council staff or members of the public.
The council has also stressed that children using playground equipment should be appropriately supervised by parents or carers.
Parents raising concerns say they are not necessarily calling for the equipment to be removed, but believe clearer guidance could help families understand how children are expected to use it safely.
The council encourages people who spot potential problems with play equipment to report them so they can be assessed.
