Last week I attended the opening of the amazing Walkers Re-play football pitch at the New Parks Hub in New Parks with Gary Lineker, Emile Heskey, and Abbie McManus, as well as other Leicester Legends and players from Leicester Women.

The pitch, which has been funded by Walkers, is one of only five of it’s kind in the world, and is made partly using recycled Walkers crisp packets.

This investment will be providing fitness, well-being & employment opportunities to residents in New Parks & beyond, and I am so glad the people of New Parks have this new asset and opportunity.
