Overview

The aim of this survey is to find out how people use Birmingham’s parks and green spaces for their physical and mental wellbeing, and the value they place on them.

We are also keen to hear suggestions for improvements or other activities that you would like to see in your local parks.

Why your views matter

Since April 2013, there has been a programme of outdoor activities at various parks around Birmingham under the Active Parks scheme. We would  like to know if you took part in any of these activities and what you thought of them.

So, whether you go to the park to get some space and peace and quiet, walk the dog, volunteer or take part in organised sports, your views are important to us. If you don’t use our parks and green spaces, then we equally want to know why, so we can try and improve things for you.

The survey can be accessed online through the below link and paper copies will also be available at various parks. After the survey, you will have the opportunity to enter a prize draw to win £50 of high street vouchers.
