02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

St Fittick's Park SCIO celebrates the park's value to Torry. We host events to encourage enjoyment of green space and knowledge and appreciation of resident biodiversity. We work to protect and improve the park through community stewardship activities. We do this by providing an outdoor classroom as a venue for nature education, litter picks and other maintenance, and community celebrations. A classroom coordinator, supported by volunteers and a social media manager, manages events in the classroom. Local groups who work to improve community wellbeing. (e.g. Torry Knitters, the Bridge Centre, Torry Men's Shed, Balnagask Community Centre) also help us. Collaboration with the network of local organisations working to increase enjoyment and knowledge of nature brings valuable expertise to events in the park. These include North East Scotland Biological Records Centre, North East Scotland Biodiversity Partnership ,North East Mammals Network, Keep Scotland Beautiful and Greyhope Bay.
