A Heritage Lottery Funded project by Leicester City Council
Since 2015, Leicester City Council has been running a Heritage Lottery Funded project called Story of Parks.
In the three years it has run, we have held an extensive range of activities, from family festival days and a regular calendar of park-themed walks and talks, to several different volunteering opportunities and working with community groups and schools. All of this was designed to inspire the people of Leicester to learn about their parks and green spaces, to find out about their secret histories and to really appreciate and take care of the parks going forward.
