Summary of the programme

The Parks for People programme is a joint initiative between the Big Lottery Fund and the Heritage Lottery Fund. BIG remains committed to working in partnership with HLF and has allocated £10 million in its grant budget for 2010/11 towards the programme in England.

Our vision is that everyone should have access to a local park for enjoyment and recreation. Parks for People builds on the two Lottery Funds' shared commitment to bring real improvements to local environments by making a lasting impact on the lives of local people and the places where they live.

The Heritage Lottery Fund will continue to run the Parks for People programme on behalf of both HLF and BIG, and are currently accepting applications for the programme. For further information on the programme and details of how to apply, please visit the Heritage Lottery Fund
