Children's Play Areas
West Lothian Council inspect and maintain play areas all year round.
Opportunities to participate in play activities are essential to the healthy mental, physical, social and emotional development of children. The main objectives are to ensure that children have accessible, safer, inclusive fun and stimulating play environments.
