Playground opening times

The playground is currently open 9am to 4pm. With help from volunteers we would like to keep it open until 8pm through the summer.

If you can help keep it open for the children of Tavistock to enjoy, please contact the office.

Garage No. 27 in the car park is our bulk storage area. You can leave items such as furniture or white goods (fridges, washing machines and similar) here.

Please do not leave these items in communal areas, as they are a health and safety hazard.
