Thumbs up for pensioners’ playground
The £15,000 (€20,000) outdoor facility in Dam Head Park, Blackley, Greater Manchester, features six pieces of fitness equipment designed specifically to provide gentle exercise for the over-60s.
It marks the end of a two-year quest by the Dam Head Residents’ Association to find the perfect leisure facilities for their older members. Located between a children’s playground and a multi-sports pitch, it has equipment to work the upper body, legs and hips.
