Did you know that there are 25 parks and open spaces spread across the whole of the borough?
The Urban Parks include a variety of different landscape types and are extensively used by many local residents.
Next time you are stuck at home with nothing to do why not visit one of your local parks and see what they have to offer, you may be surprised!
You could play mini-golf at Central Park, visit the orchard at Tantony Green in Marks Gate, go boating at Barking Park, or explore the countryside at Eastbrookend - the choice is yours.
Where to find them and facilities available.
The Lee Valley Regional Park stretches along the leafy banks of the River Lee, from Ware in Hertfordshire, through Essex, to the Thames at East India Dock Basin.
Search for parks with specific leisure facilities available.
