A playground for the Baobab vacant lot: help our neighbors in Liverpool
A community-led a playground at the Baobab vacant lot that will serve 283 neighbors.
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom1,068 views
For eight years the neighborhood has asked for a playground. This year a group of 16 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Baobab vacant lot, but no funding.
We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $1,550.
It will serve about 283 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in December and everyone is invited.
We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos.
All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance.
Where the $1,550 goes:
• Safety equipment and signage: $260
• Permits and inspections: $370
• Materials: $920
Thanks for being kind about this.
