Help shape the future of your green space
The future for such spaces lie with local communities who are being encouraged to work with other groups, organisations and other key stakeholders to secure a sustainable future.
Finding new ways of funding, new ways to maintain and maximise the community health benefits of our open green spaces is key to their survival. Everyone deserves to have access to open green space, within a 10 minute walk of their home.
Our Member Associations and Friends
We pride ourselves in working with as many local and national groups and organisations as possible, along with local businesses and clubs who provide much needed assistance, help and support.
Meet Our Committee Officers
We are a dedicated group of volunteers working in partnership with Aberdeenshire Council in order to maintain and enhance the park for everyone to enjoy. We want the park to be developed and re-energised whilst retaining access for everyone. We are fully constituted and have four elected officers and ten committee members.
