A popular Stoke-on-Trent park has been given a new lease of life as part of the city’s ongoing Centenary celebrations.
Newstead Park has been revamped with freshly painted and cleaned play equipment, new safety pads under play equipment, new goal posts, upgraded bins, safety signage and planted new trees.
Local business, Goodwin International Ltd, approached Stoke-on-Trent City Council earlier this year to offer their support for the Centenary and to give back to the city that has been home to their headquarters since 1883.
The project focused on regenerating the park as a safe, welcoming space for local families and residents to enjoy for years to come. The team from Goodwin International Ltd also carried out a litter pick and a general clean up of the park.
Hanford, Trentham and Newstead Ward Councillors, Maxine Clark and Daniel Jellyman said: “First and foremost, thank you to the team from Goodwin International Ltd for helping to rejuvenate Newstead Park. The much-loved park is a hive of activity for local residents and their families, and the new work has proved popular."
“The Centenary year is having a positive impact on all corners of the city, and it has been brilliant to see that impact be felt at ward level.”
