Residents Survey on Open Spaces
We would like to hear from you about the public open spaces in your area. These can range from larger recreation grounds to small pocket parks, including playgrounds, sports pitches and wilder natural areas.
About the project
We are currently running a survey to collect the county’s residents’ views about their local parks, playgrounds, sports pitches and other open spaces including wilder natural areas.
There are two parts to the survey.
The first part gives you the opportunity tocomment on our mapto identify open spaces on the map provided. For each open space that you mark on the map please answer the questions 1-5. You can fill this out for as many open spaces as you would like.
The second part is a survey on open spaces and seeks your views on different aspects of open space. This could include if open spaces are accessible and meet your needs, are attractive and well kept or help you to connect with nature.
The deadline to submit responses is Friday 9th September 2022.
Please share the link to the survey with friends, neighbours and colleagues, and on social media.
If you have any questions about this survey or the Herefordshire Council’s work to update the local plan, please email us.
