Fermanagh and Omagh District Council is committed to improving the physical and mental health and wellbeing of our young people and as a result it launched an ambitious Play Strategy  in 2021 to guide the provision, sustainable management and development of Play Parks across the district to 2030.

The Council manages and maintains 102 playparks throughout the district and the Play Park Strategy will see investment of almost £5 million over a ten year period to 2030.  This investment will develop, transform and upgrade the Council’s play park estate to enhance the play offering and opportunities to have fun whilst ensuring accessible equipment for more inclusive play.

As part of the Strategy, Gortin Glen Forest Park and Grange Park, Omagh have been transformed into destination play areas.  The play park at Fermanagh Lakeland Forum will also be developed into a destination play park thank to PEACEPLUS funding and will be completed as part of the Redevelopment of Fermanagh Lakeland Forum.  A further 6 play areas will be designated as “neighbourhood-equipped play parks” while the reminder will be “locally-equipped play parks” which will all meet the recognised standards for accessibility and inclusivity.

The Council is currently in Year 5 of delivery of the Play Park Strategy which is managed by a dedicated Play Plan Delivery Team.

You can keep up to date with progress through our social media channels.
