That the Parliament congratulates Hazlehead Park, Seaton Park, Victoria Park, Johnston Gardens, Slopefield Allotments, Garthdee Field Allotments and Duthie Park for all achieving a Green Flag Award; understands that the Green Flag Award is an international scheme that recognises outdoor recreational areas that can demonstrate excellent management and maintenance, proven environmental standards that encourage biodiversity, promote positive mental health, enable exercise and provide a safe and accessible space for play; recognises what it sees as the incredible effort put in by volunteers to maintain these spaces, and wishes all involved the very best for the future.
