Following our June report regarding Tandridge District Council imposing charges on sports clubs using local parks, the council has now clarified its position:
“Caterham Pumas, and other not-for-profit groups, can use our parks for free, if they use their own equipment and don't use our marked-out pitches. If they use our marked-out pitches and goals, they will need to book them before use and pay a fee, which they can do on our website. All groups using our parks and open spaces must also ensure they have public liability insurance and have completed a risk assessment."
