Economic vitality

We work with local partners to manage our sites.

This in itself has local economic advantages and some of our sites (such as Northumberlandia) will attract visitor spending from outside the region (domestic and international tourists). The site therefore makes a tangible contribution to the economy of the area providing significant direct, indirect and induced economic impacts.

However, the delivery of well managed green space also improves an area and as a result can encourage further local investment such as high quality development and regeneration. Well managed parks can therefore have a demonstrable impact on property prices enhancing the desirability of the area as a place to live and work.

Our performance is reported each year in our Annual Report and Accounts.
