Just announced! Warley Woods is one of the best green spaces not just in the West Midlands but in the whole of the UK. For the sixth year running Warley Woods, managed by Warley Woods Community Trust, has received a prestigious Green Flag Award and that’s official! Wow! Well done Warley Woods!
The award, handed out by environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy, recognises and rewards the best parks and green spaces across the country. A Green Flag flying overhead is a sign to the public that the space boasts the highest possible standards, is beautifully maintained and has excellent facilities. A record-breaking 1,476 parks and green spaces received the prestigious Green Flag Award this year.
Viv Cole, Trust Manager told welovebearwood that “We are absolutely delighted to receive a Green Flag Award for the sixth year running from Keep Britain Tidy. This Award recognises and highlights that local people are benefitting from a green space of the very highest quality. The Community Trust has been managing the site for 10 years now and its staff and volunteers are very proud of its track record of high standards.”
