What is the Open Spaces Forum?

Who is this for?
Anyone who volunteers or carries out unpaid work in parks and green open spaces or has an interest in becoming involved in Green Spaces.
Why would I want to come?
Meetings enable communication, information sharing and news relating to parks and open spaces, volunteering, opportunities for collaboration, funding, local and national updates.
Meetings may identify areas of common interest and need and will provide learning opportunities, sharing good practices, mentoring and networking between groups.
