Active teenagers have a new place to get their kicks.

A new multi-use sports area was unveiled in Morden Park on Thursday. The facility features play equipment designed specifically for teenagers, and was designed with the help of students at Bishopsford Arts College.

Councillor David Simpson, the council’s cabinet member for environment and leisure services, said: "This wonderful new sports area provides teenagers in the borough with the opportunity to have fun whilst taking part in various sporting activities.”

He added: “The sports area will be here for many young people to enjoy for years to come.”
