Episode Details

Leeds’ seven top parks just snagged the prestigious Green Flag Award for the 30th anniversary of the scheme — a national honor recognizing excellence in public green spaces. Golden Acre, Kirkstall Abbey, Middleton Park, Otley Chevin, Pudsey Park, Roundhay Park, and Temple Newsam are all celebrated for their upkeep, eco-friendly practices, and community-friendly facilities. With over 2,391 sites across the UK earning the award this year, Leeds stands out as a leader in park management — especially impressive since some of these parks have held the flag for more than 15 years straight. Council staff and volunteers are thrilled, highlighting how vital parks are for community well-being, especially as public services tighten. Investing in green spaces isn’t just nice — it’s a smart, practical way to improve quality of life for everyone, and Leeds is proving it works.
