How can we make our public spaces better?
Have your say!
Community members in Shieldfield are working on designs for improvements to the spaces around the multi-use-games-area (MUGA) off Napier Street/Shield Street. To make sure these designs can meet the needs of a wide range of residents, we need input from people who live nearby.
On Saturday 12th and Monday 14th April we’ll be gathering by the MUGA to test out some initial designs and gather feedback and ideas. Drop by anytime between 2pm and 5pm.
Join us!
View and test the designs
Speak to architects, planners and residents

There will be cake, refreshments, games and prizes!
