Love
Parks Week 2014 registered another record amount of participants at events up
and down the country.
Over
455,000 people visited our parks and green spaces, sampling the variety of
activities that took place.
There
was however a more sombre message delivered during Love Parks Week, alerting
people to the fact that with funding drying up for many of our parks, we could
see a decline in the green spaces we love so much.
National
Federation of Parks & Green Spaces launched their Save our UK Parks
Petition which is supported by the Love Parks campaign and a number of other
organisations, such as Groundwork and the Countryside Management Association.
Over
the coming months the Love Parks project will be expanded to a year round
brand, raising the profile of parks and green spaces.
