HARROGATE parents are being given the opportunity to choose new equipment for one of the town's oldest playgrounds, Luchon Way.

Harrogate Council is inviting parents and children to an equipment roadshow on January 15 at Coppice Valley School between 3pm and 7pm to see the equipment for themselves.

"We're keen to hear local residents' views as these improvements are part of an ongoing process not only comply with health and safety regulations but provide for the needs of youngsters today," said cabinet member for leisure, Coun Pat Marsh.
