Visitor praises ‘peaceful’ and ‘safe’ park after safety improvements

A woman who visits a Nottinghamshire park regularly to feel closer to her late husband has praised new safety improvements.
Gill Elliott, of Gedling, who visits Arnot Hill Park as many as four times a week, said she was delighted with the upgrades - including improved lighting and pruning - which have been funded through the Safer Streets initiative led by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Nottinghamshire and partners.
It comes after The Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Nottinghamshire secured £1m of Home Office funding to invest throughout Nottinghamshire through the Safer Streets scheme, with a further £333,000 being committed for Nottingham City from the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner’s own budget.
