Our Green Space Strategy sets out the standards we aspire to for our parks and open spaces in Horsham District.
"Our vision is to provide, protect and enhance a publicly accessible network of diverse and quality green spaces that meet the need of our community"
We recognise that a network of well designed and cared for open spaces adds to the character of those green spaces where we want to live, work, play and visit.
Our seven core aims
- Provide and maintain quality green spaces in appropriate locations, which are protected for future generations.
- Ensure our green spaces are clean, safe and non-threatening.
- Encourage local people to use our green spaces to benefit their health and wellbeing.
- Maximise the income potential of our green space assets.
- Support, encourage and mentor voluntary groups.
- Enhance the wildlife conservation value of our green spaces.
- Deliver excellent value and high performance while keeping the customer at the heart of what we do.
