02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

Bishopbriggs Outdoor Spaces is a community-led charity established to protect, improve and promote access to outdoor spaces and green infrastructure across Bishopbriggs and Auchinairn. We work to enhance local parks, paths, woodlands and open spaces, helping residents of all ages enjoy safe, accessible and sustainable environments for recreation, health and wellbeing. We achieve this through community engagement, volunteering, partnership working with East Dunbartonshire Council and other local organisations, and by supporting projects that improve biodiversity, environmental sustainability, active travel routes and public access to outdoor spaces. We also raise awareness of the importance of local green spaces and encourage community participation in their improvement and long-term stewardship.
