4. Parks of today: Taking on the challenge (part 2)
Summary
With deep funding cuts to local government over the past decade and no statutory protection, park managers are struggling to maintain and improve public parks. This presentation will draw on historically-informed research projects; Nicola will present the main findings from the 3-year Sheffield IWUN project to examine the implications of health findings for policymakers and practitioners.
