TORRIDGE District Councillor for Hartland and Bradworthy Brian Redwood has given £750 of his annual Councillor's grant allowance to the Bradworthy Play Group to go towards new playground equipment for youngsters in the village.

Kimble Eldridge, Chair of the Bradworthy Play Group said: "Bradworthy Playfields Committee has been working really hard for the last year to revamp and rebuild our park.

"We have been very fortunate to have raised enough money from fundraising, grants and donations to complete phase one which includes a tractor trailer, play house and swing. We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has helped us."
