Following the creation of the Play Strategy 2023 – 2027, an in-depth study of current play provision that provided a series of recommendations and identified play areas which could be upgraded and redeveloped to provide modern, high-quality play equipment for local families to enjoy. The strategy also identifies a small number of areas which are no longer suitable for modern play equipment and as there are other more suitable play areas nearby, the recommendation is that these more limited play spaces are removed.

Habitats Regulations Mitigation (RAMS)
The Suffolk Coast and Heaths is a special place, with its internationally important wildlife sites a huge draw for residents and visitors. New residential development in the area, including tourist accommodation, is therefore expected to increase the number of people visiting these wildlife sites, which include Special Protection Areas, Special Areas of Conservation and Ramsar sites. These three designations are collectively known as Habitats sites (also known as European sites). They are protected by the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017 as amended (known as the Habitats Regulations). Habitats sites are designated for their incredible birds, plants, habitats and other rare and unusual species. It’s this diversity of nature that makes visiting the Suffolk Coast and Heaths such a unique experience.

Health and air quality
Air pollution is associated with a number of adverse health impacts. Generally if you are young and in a good state of health, moderate air pollution levels are unlikely to have any serious short term effects. However, elevated levels and/or long term exposure to air pollution can lead to more serious symptoms and conditions affecting human health. This mainly affects the respiratory and inflammatory systems, but is also recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer.
