Why MyParkScotland?
• Greenspace surveys:
falling levels of use & lower quality ratings
• Increasing Friends & community groups
• State of UK Public Parks report 2014
• Financial and capacity pressures
Where’s the money???
Need for alternative mechanisms
• Nesta/HLF Rethinking Parks programme
• Heritage Lottery Fund and Nesta
• Innovative and promising new business models
• 11 Projects across UK
• MyParkScotland only one in Scotland
Why MyParkScotland?
MyParkScotland is our response to this challenge:
• New way of supporting parks and greenspace projects
But also link to the past…
Victorians: public subscription & philanthropic industrialists
• Mechanism for supporting individual & business giving
• Scotland’s only crowdfunding platform specifically for
parks and greenspaces
• Raising money for tomorrow by creating
Sustainability Fund for projects
• Creating an Endowment Fund for parks
A new way to …
Discover, enjoy and support
… parks and greenspaces
7 habits of park innovators
• diversify income streams
• understand where your money is going
• involve people
• work with others
• test and adapt, and then do it again
• be open
• secure a mandate to operate
