Our parks service values working together with organisations, volunteers and communities.  

We're committed to: 

  • connecting people to their local community
  • improving the experiences of volunteers working with us 
  • developing conservation and green space skills 
  • developing opportunities to support communities to make decisions about parks 
  • supporting and developing people's access to parks and green spaces

Volunteering in our parks and green spaces can help you: 

  • gain new skills and experience to improve your employment opportunities 
  • meet new people and be part of a community 
  • improve your physical and mental wellbeing
