Nottinghamshire homebuilders warn children of potential summer risks

As the summer holidays approach, Barratt and David Wilson Homes are encouraging children to stay away from building sites and urging families in Nottinghamshire to choose safer places to play.

The leading developers are encouraging families to make use of local parks, playgrounds and leisure centres for fun, engaging activities that keep children safe and support their physical and mental development.

 Mark Cotes, Managing Director at Barratt and David Wilson Homes, said: “We fully support children playing and staying active where they live, but our message for the summer holidays is simply to be safe and avoid going near live building sites.

“Curiosity and adventure are important parts of a child’s development, but construction sites can be dangerous. We encourage children and families to use the public open spaces on our developments, as well as other safe local facilities, instead.”
