Tips and ideas, resources, a newsletter, and community projects and intiatives. The London Friends of Green Spaces Network covers the 500+ local Friends Groups and borough-wide Friends Forums for public green spaces across London.

The National Federation of Parks of Green Spaces (NFPGS) is a UK network of area-wide Forums. We exist to promote, protect and improve the UK's parks and green spaces by linking together all the friends and users Forums/networks throughout the country. To do this we need to come together and lobby Councils, MP's and Central Government to ensure that our GREEN AND PLEASANT LAND, that is the United Kingdom, remains GREEN. |
