Survey on town open spaces is launched

An online survey has been launched to discover where people’s favourite park, square or green space is, what sort of open space they would like in town, their views on children’s play areas and how accessible rural parts of St Helier are to reach.

Environment Minister Steve Luce said: ‘I’d encourage everyone that works, lives or visits town to take a few minutes to give their views on St Helier’s open spaces. To come up with a plan that reflects people’s wishes, we need to understand what people do and don’t like about our parks, gardens, squares and play areas – anywhere in fact that people use for a breather or to kick a ball or walk the dog.’

Those who complete the online survey and leave their contact details could be in with a chance of winning £100 worth of Marks and Spencer vouchers.

The survey results will contribute towards an audit of existing spaces in town and help shape the final open-

space strategy, which is due to be published for consultation in the first half of next year.

Anyone wanting to complete the survey can do so until 16 October by clicking here.
