Knowledge Hub

Over many years, the evidence base for parks and green spaces has been overwhelming, with guidance dating back to the days of ILAM, the Urban Parks Forum, GreenSpace, and especially CABE Space. Much of this work today is still relevant. The intention here is to make available this guidance as well as current work that is being undertaken. Many links are provided in daily updates from across the sector, but this page makes available such work and in essence is the Knowledge Hub for Parks and Green Spaces.

Please also find links to the following organisations who have developed significant resources all available to parks management professionals:

FieldsInTrust.org
GreenFlagAward.org
GreenSpaceScotland.org.uk
PlayEngland.org.uk
APSE.org.uk
TheParksAlliance.org
