  3. Contact Form Submitted

    I was down at Pole Hill Open Space and one of the mums, that takes her son to the nursery, mentioned that you have had to rescue kids who couldn't get down after climbing on top of our (West London Racing Centre) container and was wondering if you had the details of these incidents over the last three years(electronic would be ideal) There aren't supposed to climb any structure in the parks but that doesn't stop them and dealing with graffiti is a hassle. I can a pop in, as I am very local to you and walk past your depot on my way to the park.
