Love Parks Week 2024

Love Parks is a week-long celebration (July 26th - August 4th) highlighting the vital role green spaces play in boosting the health and wellbeing of residents and communities.

More than 500 local authorities and landowners in the UK have taken part, with visitors taking part in a diverse range of fun activities, from building bug hotels and trying tai chi to enjoying live music in their local green spaces. 

Here’s three great reasons why ‘Love Parks’ week is a great educational resource and contributes to Sustainable Development Goals. 

  • Healthier communities – parks encourage physical activity, reduce stress, and provide spaces for social interaction, leading to happier and healthier residents. 
  • Stronger communities – well-maintained parks become hubs for community events, fostering a sense of belonging and pride. 
  • Sustainable future – parks act as natural filters, improving air and water quality while mitigating climate change impacts.
