Parks and green spaces play an important role in our communities – it gives us an open and natural space to relax, play and breathe. This is why the organisation ‘Fields in Trust’ fight to protect these spaces, so that not only we can enjoy them but future generations can too – protecting a total of 2,809 spaces across the country.

This year for the Best Park award our very own Hanley park has been nominated. I am sure many of you have spent time there with your family or have attended the range of events hosted there. It would be excellent for such an important part of our city to get the recognition it deserves. You can vote for Hanley park here 👉http://www.fieldsintrust.org/best-park/west-midlands
