What we do …

PlaceScape is committed to

promoting the value of urban parks

and open spaces that people can

enjoy.

How we do it …

Our approach is based on

extensive research that

demonstrates the physical,

psychological, social and

ecological health benefits of

well-designed parks and green

spaces.

Who we do it with…

PlaceScape works with a range of organisations and community groups to establish useable, accessible green places in diverse settings, ensuring parks and open spaces meet the leisure, recreation and social wellbeing needs of the people who use them.

Why do we do it?

We recognised a big fat gap

That gap sits between communities

and the organisations who decide

what type of environment they will

live in

PlaceScape wants to fill that gap
