Parks have lots of benefits for everyone. They provide children
with space to run free and meet other children. They are places for
communities to get together and socialise. They are also places for
our young people to meet up and hang out. For these reasons... and
many more... we strive to keep our parks and open spaces safe and
clean.
Parks should be attractive and welcoming places.
Dedicated staff look after all your parks, working on everything
from grass cutting to maintaining flowerbeds, removing litter to
planting bulbs, pruning shrubs to planting trees.
There are lots of opportunities for you to get involved too! Just
get in touch. Staff are all there to give a helping hand and to
make sure our parks are clean and tidy.
