Inclusive play at Dinosaur Island

Edition: November 2026

Accessible swing

Meanwhile, at Dinosaur Island in Southwater Country Park, the second wheelchair swing in the District opened in time for the summer holidays.

The play area is popular with children and adults with accessibility and educational needs.

Continuing the dinosaur theme, visitors may also have heard the roar of prehistoric creatures echoing across the play area. Our new wind-up sound orb proved to be a huge hit with children of all ages.

These improvements build on our commitment to provide inclusive play for everyone through the Horsham District Play Strategy.
