The closures will be for an undetermined period of time and will remain under review in line with government advice. This is a fast changing situation and we will update our customers as soon as we can as things change. All our parks and public open spaces remain open at this stage, perfect for getting out and about, enjoying some fresh air and getting some exercise.

Please continue to check our websites and social media channels for further information.

Thank you for your patience and understanding which is invaluable during these challenging times.
