Families across Scotland are being invited to take part in a survey on local play parks. As part of the Play Park Renewal Programme, the Scottish Government wants to hear what people think about their local play spaces.

The Scotland’s Play Park Survey asks questions about how often families use their local park, how long they stay, and what changes or improvements they would like to see. The information gathered will help the government understand how play parks are currently used and shape future decisions and policies around outdoor play spaces.

The survey takes around seven minutes to complete, and the public are encouraged to take part and share it with others to ensure as many voices as possible are heard.
