In memory of His Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh

Keynsham Town Council was formed in 1991 and aims to provide quality local services, amenities and representation at the best possible standard within a realistic budget. The Town Council has a membership of 15 Councillors. Elections for the Town Council are held every four years. Town Councillors do not receive any payment for being elected Members and offer their time voluntarily for the benefit of the local community.

During this current period of heavy usage and wet weather, the grass within the Town Council's Play Areas is becoming very wet and muddy and in some cases irrepairably damaged .

We're sure some parents may be happy for their children to get muddy, however the Town Council is concerned about the slip hazard for both adults and children - especially elderly relatives. 

Whilst the Town Council will do everything it can to keep the play areas open, which will include putting down sand or roping off areas of grass,  there may be some occasions where a play area will have to temporarily close until the weather improves, the grass has a chance to recover and it is safe to walk on for all visitors

The Play Areas are inspected on Monday and Friday mornings and an update will be published below on their status.

PLEASE CONTINUE TO USE THE PLAY AREAS RESPONSIBLY AND RESPECT ALL THE SAFETY SIGNAGE.

We continue to see a high number of COVID-19 cases across Bath and North East Somerset.

The KEYNSHAM Area is particularly high.

Rates across the Keynsham Area have ranged between 580 and 700 new cases per 100,000 in the week up to 16^th January
