A playground in a popular park at Acton Gardens has been completely refurbished – with a new giant slide and fully accessible trampoline among the improvements added following consultation with local residents.

The work has been carried out by Ealing Council at Mill Hill Park, on Avenue Road (W3), through an initial £250,000 investment from Countryside and L&Q as part of the Acton Gardens regeneration. The park will be renamed Avenue Road Park following the second phase of refurbishment works, which will follow in future years alongside the regeneration.
