Help make Redcatch Park & Redcatch Community Garden more inclusive
As part of our Parks4All project, we're bringing together Disabled people and carers from BS4 to make Redcatch Park and Redcatch Community Garden a more inclusive and accessible space.
Making parks more accessible for everyone
With funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, we are working with Disabled people and carers across Bristol and Bath to make local parks more accessible.
36% of households in Knowle are home to at least one Disabled person and 9% of people care for a loved one, unpaid.
It is really important that the local parks are as inclusive as possible.
Community led Park Access Assessments
In 2024, we worked with Disabled people and carers to make a plan to improve Hartcliffe Millennium Green and Withywood Park. With the Friends of Group, we have already raised funds and made improvements to the park.
Now we want to do the same at Redcatch. The park has huge potential for the local community.
Redcatch Community Garden currently has funding for a project about food and nature with and for Disabled people so together we want to make sure everyone can access the park and enjoy the activities on offer.
