Petition addressed to: Elected Councillors and the executive staff of the Cumberland Council

The residents of Lidcombe request that the council replace the existing, outdated playground equipment with a modern outdoor gym to support the health, fitness, and well-being of our local community.

Reason

The current playground in our area is outdated, underutilized, and no longer meets the needs of our growing, active community. Providing an outdoor gym is important because:

  • Promotes Public Health: Access to free, outdoor fitness equipment encourages residents of all ages to engage in regular physical activity, which is essential for long-term health and well-being.
  • Maximizes Community Space: Replacing neglected equipment with a functional, modern facility ensures that our public spaces are being used effectively to foster a healthier lifestyle for Lidcombe residents.
  • Inclusive Social Connection: An outdoor gym serves as a gathering point for neighbors, creating opportunities for social interaction and strengthening our community bonds while improving our physical fitness.
Thank you so much for your support, Viyasan Jananayakam, Sydney

Why people sign

Being part of the community it would be well worth having this gym to help many of us keep fit and communicate with others and no fees

An outdoor gym would be great for the wider community of Lidcombe, old and young!

Anything that helps promote health is important

We need this upgrade to help the growing population in the area

I support this proposal as it will transform an underused area into a valuable community asset that promotes health, fitness, and social connection for local residents.
