Green Flag Community Award for Ormiston Park

Lodged by Martin Whitfield Standard Motion 13 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament notes the success of Ormiston Park in being named the only park in East Lothian to receive the Green Flag Community Award for 2025-26, recognising it as one of the best-managed green spaces in the UK; understands that Green Flag Awards are granted following an assessment process carried out by environmental charity, Keep Scotland Beautiful, which evaluates green spaces on eight key criteria, and commends The Friends of Ormiston Park, other groups in the village, including Ormiston Blooms Together and Lily’s Ormiston CIC, as well as East Lothian Council, for all the hard work that they have undertaken, which has led to Ormiston Park again securing this prestigious award.
