Friends of Parks in Burntwood

Summer is calling! ☀️🌳 Mark your calendars: Love Parks Week 2026 is officially returning from 24 July – 2 August.

Our local parks are the green hearts of our communities - providing us with fresh air, a place to play, and a sanctuary for nature. We’re getting ready to celebrate them in a big way, and we want YOU to be part of it.

Keep an eye on our page as we begin the countdown. What’s your favourite thing about your local park? Let us know in the comments! 👇

District Council House is lit up in orange this evening to mark MS Awareness Week.

Multiple Sclerosis is a lifelong condition that affects the brain and nerves, impacting thousands of people across the UK. Lighting the building is a simple but visible way to help raise awareness and show support for those living with Multiple Sclerosis, as well as their families and carers.

If you’re in the city, take a look and help us spread the word 💛
