Value parks and green spaces for their contribution to multiple policy agendas

Champion the important public service parks and green spaces provide locally

Advocate for policies that safeguard parks and green spaces across the country

Endorse the legal protection of my local parks and green spaces

Encourage sufficient and equitable provision of parks and green spaces for all

Support community volunteers on parks and green spaces

I'm an MP, MSP, MS, MLA AM or elected Mayor

Step 1
Sign

If you would like to sign the pledge and make a public commitment or if you want to find our more then please get in touch at [email protected]

We are formally recording pledges from members of the UK Parliament, Scottish Parliament, Senedd Cymru, Northern Ireland Assembly and from elected Mayors.

Step 2
Share

Once you have signed the pledge, we will send you some assets to use on your website and on social media to show you are a key advocate for parks and green spaces and help spread the word.

Why not take your photo in your local park and post that too?

Step 3
Read

Why stop there? We’d love to have a conversation about the value of parks and green spaces plus we’d be happy to provide you with data and insights about your constituency.

Parks and green spaces deserve a better future

We are calling on all political parties to commit to three policy goals that will protect, expand, and improve the future of parks and green spaces, to benefit both societal and environmental health.
