Faversham Recreation Ground Visitor Survey
This survey closes on Friday 25 April.
We've appointed Community First Partnership Ltd (CFP) to work on the final evaluation of the restoration project at Faversham Recreation Ground. The project, as supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, began in winter 2016 and was completed in winter 2024.
We would like to hear your views about the restoration works and your enjoyment of the Rec. Your comments will be used to help evaluate the project.
The project restored many of the park’s historic features and made improvements to local facilities. The funding supported a five-year action plan for community engagement.
The improvements included:
- refurbishment of the former gardener’s lodge and loggias
- restoration of original wrought iron gates and boundary fence on Whitstable Road and Park Road
- reinstatement of some areas of historical planting and paths
- re-imagining unique features such as the drinking fountain and milestone
- refurbishment of the main changing pavilion and toilet block
- improvements to both the play area and skate park
- development of a catering kiosk
- creating an outdoor performance space
- establishing a Community Park Forum
- employing a park activities co-ordinator and a park ranger
- recruiting volunteers and offering training opportunities
- a "programme of events to bring the park alive”
