Fun and Games

Playgrounds are an important feature of any community.

They are a safe place for children to play. Children in Leitrim are luckier than most children in Ireland - there are more playgrounds in Leitrim than nearly anywhere else in the country.

Leitrim County Council developed most of these playgrounds. Some were developed by local communities themselves.

The council insures and looks after all playgrounds in the county. This is because it is difficult for local people to do this themselves.

The council and local communities decide together where new playgrounds will be built.

They also decide what kind of equipment they will put in the playground. Playground equipment must be safe as well as being fun.
