Chavasse Park named one of the UK’s best green spaces

Today, a record number of parks and green spaces collect a Green Flag Award
Chavasse Park in Liverpool ONE has been recognised by the Green Flag Award Scheme as one of the very best in the world.

The park is among a record-breaking 1,883 UK parks and green spaces that will today receive a prestigious Green Flag Award – the mark of a quality park or green space.

This international award, now into its third decade, is a sign to the public that the space boasts the highest possible environmental standards, is beautifully maintained and has excellent visitor facilities.

Chavasse Park is five acres of beautifully landscaped gardens with winding paths and peaceful spots to take five in the heart of the city centre. The park plays host to an exciting year-round events programme, boasts a nature trail and is surrounded by some of the best places to eat and drink in the city.

Liverpool ONE’s Estate Director Steven Connolly said: “We are absolutely delighted to receive a Green Flag Award for an incredible sixth year in a row.

“Chavasse Park really is the jewel in Liverpool ONE’s crown and is enjoyed by families, those escaping the office for a lunch break and tourists every day. This award is a true testament to the people who work tirelessly to keep the space in such world-class condition.”

International Green Flag Award scheme manager Paul Todd said: “We are delighted to be celebrating another record-breaking year for the Green Flag Award scheme, with more Green Flags awarded this year than last year.”
“Each flag honours the thousands of staff and volunteers who work tirelessly to maintain the high standards demanded by the Green Flag Award. We are proud to have so many wonderful green spaces in the UK for people to enjoy, and hope that next year, we award even more flags.”
