What a launch! ⛹🏾♂️💪🏼🥳 @LM_Westminster - Cllr Karen Scarborough & Cllrs Richard Rigby, Geoff Barraclough (@w9maidavale) Nafsika Thalassis, unveil the upgraded MUGA & outdoor gym.
The MUGA got put to test, as @melita1994 & young people from @StAugustinesCE shot some hoops, alongside Play Innovation, MSC Consultants - the glow-up crew & team members from @EveryoneActive & ActiveWestminster were there to share in the celebrations.
Now it’s your turn. Come and give the new facilities a go.

Westminster City Council has published proposals to use the Sustainable Communities Act to challenge the Government to act and provide a fairer funding settlement following a public consultation.
The proposal reflects the strong level of public support – with 90% of those consulted agreeing - and sets out practical changes to protect services, respond to rising demand and recognise the unique costs of delivering services in central London.

The @LM_Westminster visited ActiveWestminster’s First Aid training, highlighting a simple message: CPR is a life skill for everyone.
At school, at home, on the sports field, anywhere. Knowing what to do in a cardiac emergency could help save a life ❤️
