A playground zip wire is back in action after months of being out of use.

The zip wire, at the Wolverley Memorial Hall, was out of action due to wear and tear.

However, a £3,000 donation from the Sebright's Educational Foundation covered the cost of the replacement.

Graham Wallis, chair of the Wolverley Memorial Charitable Trust, said: "We are extremely grateful to Sebright's Educational Foundation for helping our charity meet the cost of replacing the zip wire which has always been the most popular piece of equipment in the playground.

"There are considerable benefits to children using this equipment as well as it being great fun.

"There are physical gains to strength and core stability as well as building confidence.

"Children of all ages absolutely love the exhilarating feeling of being off the ground and gliding through the air."
