SPLASH pads across Wychavon will remain open for longer as the county bathed in a heatwave.

Wychavon District Council revealed it has extended how long its splash pads will remain open so its residents can take advantage of the warmer weather.

Splash pads will remain open until the end of September - weather permitting.

A spokesperson for Wychavon District Council said: "You'll be thrilled to know that due to the lovely weather forecast, we will be keeping all our splash pads open until the end of September! How awesome is that?

"Of course, this is weather permitting, but don't worry, we'll keep you all updated.

"So make sure to keep an eye on our Facebook page for any updates!

"Take advantage of this fantastic opportunity to let your kiddos have a splashing good time after school. They deserve it!"

Wychavon has splash pads in Droitwich's Lido Park and in Abbey Park in Evesham and Pershore.
