'This behaviour is unacceptable and deeply disappointing. It not only harms a space used by families and young children, but also creates avoidable costs for our community.
It is possible that videos of the incident may be circulating on social media, and we would welcome any information that could assist. Please contact the Town Council at towncouncil@princesrisboroughtowncouncil.gov.uk or call 01844 275912 if you can help.
Let’s work together to protect our parks.'
