Artivities
Gwenfro Valley Adventure Playground is managed by Wrexham Youth and Play Partnership in
partnership with a dedicated Parent Steering Group who have completed fundraisin8 forthe
playground throughout the year. Gwenfro Valley is a self-built outdoor, staffed play space that
offers rich play opportunities and is highly valued by local children and their families who have
a huge sense of ownership over it. It is a space for freedom, exploration and connection that's
currently open every day after school and on Sundays. It is firmly rooted within the community
promoting happy, healthy childhoods for community members.
Gwenfro Valley Adventure Playground continues to be open 6 days a week. Over the year the
playground was attended by over 608 individual children with 100 under 5s. The playground
continued to be a popular meeting place for parents as well with 270 registered. We had 22
adult volunteer this year. With an additional 15 corporate volunteers. The number of adult
volunteer hours was 421 from March 2024 to April 2025. In addition, 53 different young
people gave 110 volunteer hours.
A huge amount of fun has been had on the playground this year with highlights including a trip
to watch Wrexham FC, a Christmas grotto, Halloween community event, summer celebrations,
and the children working with staff to build the new tree house structure. We were pleased to
welcome Lesley Griffiths, MS to visit the playground, who said; 'Gwenfro Valley Adventure
Playground is a valuable. much loved resource that offers cfuciGI support to the communit(.
We have been grateful for local businesses donating their time and resources to support us
with playground renovations. With their help were pleased to finish the installation of our new
toilet block and zipwire.
We held a volunteer and funder celebration event to recognise the time and hard work our
partners give to the playground.

The playground is a true hub for community support with an informal food bank and holiday
