For those that have ventured down to Barnstone Park Play Area, you will see that there are a couple of fantastic new additions as below.
Even though they look inviting, the equipment is not yet complete.
The work needs to be finished and officially signed off, before play commences.
I will advise you all once it is officially ready for action!!!

Hello,
We have received today a letter from the head of the NHS Test & Trace programme, Dido Harding
Reiterating the importance of downloading and using the Covid-19 App
https://coronavirusresources.phe.gov.uk/the-nhs-covid-19-app/
The more people that do the right thing – by using the app, and self-isolating when alerted – the more we keep each other safe, stop infection rates rising and protect people.

Free parking permits for NHS workers, social care staff, key workers and volunteers
https://www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/newsroom/news/free-parking-permits-for-nhs-workers-social-care-s
Councillor John Cottee
Chairman of Communities & Place Committee
Nottinghamshire County Council
Nottinghamshire County Council and all Nottinghamshire district and borough councils have launched a free parking permit for NHS and social care workers during the Coronavirus public health emergency. The permits allow eligible staff to park for an unlimited time on single yellow lines, in residents’ parking areas, limited waiting bays, or council-owned car parks.
As well as NHS and social care workers, the permit offer is extended to anyone providing direct support helping unwell and vulnerable people in their communities at this unprecedented time, including emergency service workers, community volunteers, frontline transport workers, and local authority staff. We recognise that many are relying on cars to get themselves to and from work and minimise the spread of infection, and that they are also working long hours.

Eligible people can apply for a permit online at: https://secure.mipermit.com/Nottinghamshire
