As the weather takes a turn for the better, why not get involved in Love Parks Week, which runs until Sunday July 31 – a massive celebration of some of Britain’s best green spaces?

Around 1,200 events are taking place across the UK – from Tai Chi classes to jazz nights, urban street games to bat walks – with the aim of attracting a million people into their local parks.

Groundwork has launched the Urban Oasis campaign to create a voice for much-loved parks and public spaces across the country that will, no doubt, be facing a budget cut in the new financial year.

We know you all love your open spaces, which is why soo many of you are working to improve or create your own oases using funding from Community Spaces.

If you haven’t done so already, please take five minutes to register your support for our campaign, see: http://www.groundwork.org.uk/policy–learning/urbanoasis.aspx
