Our impact

Your Park Bristol & Bath is a unique, independent charity. Nobody does what we do. 2024 is our fifth anniversary and we're celebrating all we've achieved.


We empower communities and transform community life through inclusive, nature-rich and engaging park activities on people’s doorsteps across Bristol and Bath. We also break down barriers to accessing green space.

But this is only possible with our supporters. This is what we're achieving with your support.
