About this cause

Ford Park Community Group has developed a range of activities, including food growing, educational, environmental, social and cultural events. The work is underpinned by a volunteering model which enables the whole community, including disadvantaged people, to play a full part in the management of the park and to benefit from training and skills development opportunities. We provide a welcoming, safe and attractive space, open 24 hours a day, seven days a week with a range of accessible facilities. We proactively engage with a range of local organisations and schools, for example by providing courses in environmental and horticultural subjects and acting as a venue for drama, sporting and cultural events.

How this cause brings people in the community together

This will improve the safety of people using the park and may encourage more community events to be held at this venue.
