There's a bench here that has a sign on it outlining how it was donated by a gay couple. It was very cute, and seeing it always made me happy. I was gutted to see that the sign had been vandalized. Pls replace it.

  • Thank you for your report. Please find below the response from the Parks Department.

    Good afternoon

    We have checked our records and it appears the plaque may have been put on the bench without our knowledge.

    Unfortunately we cannot do a complete check as some of records were lost due to the cyber attack.

    Unless the person who either sponsored the bench or put the plaque on comes forward we will not be able to replace it as we do not know what the full inscription was.

    State changed to: Closed
