Stanhope Park just got a serious glow-up with a new colourful rubber surface!

​If you’ve taken a stroll through Stanhope Park in Holsworthy this week, you might have noticed things looking a little brighter. We are delighted to announce that the Academic Facilities Services team has been hard at work installing a brand-new rubber safety surface in the play area.

​While the primary goal of the new surfacing is to enhance safety - providing a high-quality, impact-absorbing base for little adventurers - we also wanted to make this much-loved community space as inspiring as it is secure.

• ​Vibrant aesthetics: The new colours breathe fresh life into the park, making it a more inviting destination for families.

• ​Enhanced durability: This professional-grade rubber is built to withstand the British weather and years of heavy foot traffic.

• ​Accessibility: The smooth, level surface ensures that the park remains accessible for strollers and wheelchairs alike.

​Next time you’re in Holsworthy, bring the kids down to test out the new surface!
