The City has just benefitted from a massive windfall which was awarded to the council from the Department for Education (formerly the Department for Children Schools and Families) under the Play Pathfinder funding. This funding has led to the development or upgrade of 28 play sites and 1 Adventure Playground, to find out more about play in Portsmouth click on the links below:
