Six of Manchester’s brilliant parks have been nominated for the Field in Trust UK’s Favourite Park 2022.
Parks such as Cringle Park, Debdale Park, Didsbury Park, Fletcher Moss Park, Nutsford Vale and Highfield Park have been nominated for the prestigious award.
From family fundays to afternoon strolls, the UK’s favourite park award searches the UK for parks that locals love to spend time in. The award is open to all public green spaces across the UK and searches for the local park that best caters to the needs of the community. Nominations for the award represent the many ways parks are valued by local communities.
During the pandemic, it became evident that communities value their local parks and, green spaces have an important role in the city. Manchester City Council recognise the importance of parks to our communities and are continuing to invest into local green spaces for residents. The Council want residents to be able to enjoy their local parks and to be proud of them.
Nominations for the UK’s Favourite Parks Award have been submitted by members of the public who use and love their local parks – each nomination has a short description of why it was put forward as a favourite.
