Parks and Greenspaces

Parks and greenspaces are designated areas in urban and rural settings that provide natural environments for recreation, relaxation, and biodiversity. These spaces include parks, gardens, nature reserves, and forests, offering habitats for wildlife and opportunities for people to engage in outdoor activities, such as walking, jogging, picnicking, and playing sports. They contribute to environmental health by improving air quality and managing stormwater. Additionally, parks enhance community well-being, promote social interaction, and can even increase property values, making them vital for both ecological balance and quality of life in communities.
