CHILDREN in Heytesbury, Imber and Knook are to be asked to help choose new equipment for their village play area.

They and their families are to be consulted by the local parish council and will be asked to fill in a short eight-question questionnaire.

Heytesbury, Imber & Knook Parish Council clerk Heather Parks said the aim is to find out what the children want from the play area before asking them to help choose equipment for the improvements.

She said: "We would really like to know what you and your children think, we would be grateful if you could take a few minutes to fill out this short online questionnaire."

The parish council has received £5,000 grant funding from the Fudge Trust and £2,500 from the Warminster Area Board towards the £10,000 play area improvements project.

Paper copies of the consultation questionnaire can be obtained on request from Heather Parks at clerk@heytesburyparish.co.uk.
