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
