save our public parks
Follow the example of Nottingham Council who have engaged private enterprise , and alternative sources of funding to support the council's costs in keeping our parks open and funded. The Government needs to make the maintenence of parks and green spaces a statutory requirement for councils.
Why is this important?
Parks belong to us all - they are a freely available resource. They facilitate exercise, social interaction, play, opportunities for peace and tranquillity. In today's increasingly urban- centric England, they are increasingly valuable.
