Grimsby Live understands the funding North East Lincolnshire will get can go towards new playgrounds or improvements at existing, and has to go towards three playground areas. “Every child deserves somewhere local to play, and every family deserves spaces they can enjoy together. ‌The £18m for kids' playgrounds is part of a wider £319m funding injection the Government has announced. People across the country will see and feel the difference this investment makes, restoring pride in local areas." It is not the first time there has been targeted investment in playgrounds in North East Lincolnshire in recent years.
