Derby City Council Parks joined the national Love Parks Week campaign which last took place between 14 - 22 June 2008.

During this period the Council raised the public's awareness of all its Parks and Open Spaces within the city. This was to get more people onto and using the Parks along with users taking a closer look at what is available. 

During the week we ran two competitions, park trials and photography. However you could still do the trails just for fun!
