Havering Council play areas upgrade
Havering Council is implementing its approved £3 million investment for play area upgrades across the borough.
Havering Council approved an investment of up to £3 million for upgrading play areas across the borough's parks and open spaces over five years, a decision made at a Cabinet meeting in October 2025. The council plans to award a contract to a single supplier via the Eastern Shires Purchasing Organisation framework, with the contract's estimated commencement date in January 2026.
This approach aims to streamline the process, improve design quality, and enhance public consultation, according to council documents. Councillor Ray Morgon, Leader of the Council, highlighted the importance of parks as assets within Havering. No further meetings or developments are currently scheduled regarding this project.
