A beautifully designed report detailing the work being carried out by Crawley Borough Council to maintain and further improve Worth Park has become a template for green spaces celebrating Keep Britain Tidy’s prestigious Green Flag awards.
The Worth Park conservation report 2023 to 2024 is a concise and colourful overview of how it is looked after.
It explains initiatives to improve biodiversity, its rare plants, award-winning trees, and the range of activities that regularly take place at the park, including croquet, well-being walks and gardening sessions.
Worth Park, which has both Green Flag and Green Heritage status, was completely restored a decade ago with funding from the Heritage Lottery, Big Lottery Fund, and other sources as an important recreational site for the community and as a centre of excellence for the environment and conservation.
This document really showcases how well-maintained Worth Park is and how it has not only become a real asset for the local community but a leader for conservation and biodiversity. The restoration of the park has not only transformed its environmental value but has become a real steppingstone to bigger things and this report is a celebration of that and we are delighted that the Keep Britain Tidy group has recognised this in putting it forward as a resource others can follow.

The report is well written with an engaging design and really captures the real essence of Worth Park. A shining example of how to promote work that is being done in the vital area of conservation, biodiversity, and restoration.
