A number of consultation sessions are set to take place to inform the future development of play facilities in Sixmilecross and Maguiresbridge.

Fermanagh and Omagh District Council is hosting the events early next month, allowing locals to have their say on the newly approved Play Park Strategy which will guide the future provision, upgrade, development and sustainable management of play parks across the district. As part of year one works for the strategy, development and transformation of the play areas in Sixmilecross and Maguiresbridge have been identified as priority.
