The Deputy Mayor of Douglas has been inspecting play areas around the city.
It follows a number of complaints from parents who feel the parks need more maintenance.
Steven Crellin says he understands parents’ frustrations, and believes Anagh Coar’s playground appears to be the worst.
Other issues include a lack of benches in some parks and inaccessibility for prams and wheelchairs.
The Island's Local Democracy Reporter has been talking to some parents to find out their concerns, but first we’ll hear from Councillor Crellin:
