CHANGING room management and contractor responsibilities at Harvey Park will be reviewed by Slough Borough Council after a series of complaints.

Frustrated users of the playing field in Tamar Way have lobbied the council into taking action over the unfit facilities since the start of the season.

Wendy Foster runs the three Langley Galaxy teams that use the venue as a home ground but believes Harvey Park has been a “complete waste” this season.

She has complained about dirty and closed changing rooms, a lack of hot water for showers and no access to the car park.

Foster told the Observer: “The council has basically admitted liability but there is no guarantee from one week to the next, so it all sounds bonkers.

“We believe Harvey Park is the best facility around but we just need a proper structure in place because it can’t carry on like this, it’s diabolical.”

The Langley Galaxy first and reserve teams met in a cup match at Harvey Park on Saturday where players and officials had to change outside with the facility left closed by contractors, Amey.

The council has apologised for the “complete shambles” and are now reviewing their approach.

A spokesperson for the council told the Observer: “The Harvey Park facilities should have been opened in good time and we apologise for the inconvenience caused.

“We are well under way with a comprehensive review of our approach to changing room management and contractor responsibilities, ready for a new contract starting in December this year.

“The service will be more directly managed and gives un an opportunity to improve the service residents receive.

“This review includes how we service outdoor sports facilities, where we and customers have experienced problems in recent times.

“In the meantime, we’re working with our contractor to ensure their contact details are made available to the football teams, so that if problems arise they can be resolved quickly.”

Langley Galaxy Reserves are due to host Willow Wanderers at Harvey Park this Saturday, with the Sunday side at home to Foresters Arms a day later.
