New CCTV coming to Churwell Park

Churwell Environmental Volunteers working on the scheme

Morley Town Council is working in partnership with Churwell Environmental Volunteers to bring an additional CCTV camera to Churwell Park. The scheme – which is being financed by Morley town Council – will bring a further camera to the park to oversee the newly refurbished children’s play area.

Cllr Robert Finnigan said “I am grateful for the work the Churwell Environmental Volunteers have put into this scheme in bringing this additional camera to the park. This will keep park users safer and will also mean that play equipment is less likely to be damaged or vandalised.”

CCTV cameras were introduced into Churwell Park a decade ago and have led to reduced vandalism and anti-social behaviour.

Cllr Finnigan said “We are delighted to be working in partnership with Churwell Volunteers who do excellent work across the Churwell area. The finance for this scheme has come from Morley Town Councils Community Infrastructure Levy Fund and we will be looking to use this fund on a programme of improvement works across Morley.”
