Rooted in Play: A Community-Built Playground in Lowndes Park
In Chesham’s Lowndes Park, a vibrant new playground has opened thanks to a four-year, £220,000 community campaign led by Love Lowndes, Chesham Town Council, and Friends of Lowndes Park. Designed by Proludic, the nature-themed space uses the park’s natural slope and features zones for adventurous, sensory, and imaginative play. A bespoke four-metre Robinia structure anchors the area, complemented by inclusive equipment and accessible paths. River-inspired surfacing and handmade touches reflect Chesham’s heritage. This inclusive, creative, and community-built playground now welcomes families, offering a lasting symbol of Chesham’s pride, connection, and dedication to its young people.
