Have your say on Fife’s open spaces (children and young persons)

Overview

Why Your Thoughts Matter

We want to hear what you think about parks, town squares, and green spaces in Fife.

Your answers will help us:

• Find and protect special places like parks and nature areas so they aren’t built on.
• Make open spaces better for everyone to enjoy.
• Spot places where we can add more trees, paths, or play areas.

Every answer helps us understand which places are great and which ones need a bit of help. So your opinion really counts.

The Law Behind It

There’s a rule in Scotland that says councils must make a plan for looking after green spaces. This plan is called an Open Space Strategy.

It helps us decide:

• Where green spaces should go
• How to take care of them
• How people can use them

Open spaces can be grassy areas, parks, gardens, or even town squares and paved places where people gather. We also look at how these places connect to each other — like paths, riversides, or tree-lined streets — which we call green networks.

To make a good plan, we’re checking what open spaces we already have and what we might need in the future.

How We Use Your Answers

Fife Council will use your answers to help make the Open Space Strategy. We won’t share your personal information with anyone unless we really have to — like if the law says we must.

Sometimes we check answers with other information we have, just to make sure everything is correct and fair.
