Children's play areas

Our play equipment is aimed at a range of age and ability levels. All play equipment in the district meets the highest standards of design, quality, and safety. Warwick District Council maintains over 40 play areas.

No BBQs or fires in parks and open spaces

BBQs and campfires are not permitted in any of our parks, open spaces or nature reserves, due to the risk of causing an accidental fire which could destroy wildlife, landscapes and be a danger to people and property.  

Preventing wildfires caused by BBQs and campfires
