The Douglas Park Project

The Project has been formed to benefit people living in the Largs area with the following - through renovating and maintaining Douglas Park the project is providing opportunities to improve physical and mental wellbeing through activities such as gardening, exercise and other social activities; building a stronger community by bringing people together and forging intergenerational relationships by many local organisations; providing educational opportunities, for example, gardening classes, guided walks, wildlife, nature talks, writing, poetry and art, and workshops.

In 2024, The Douglas Park Project was selected by Keep Scotland Beautiful as the winner of the Scottish level of the Sustainable Gardening Award, one of five new RHS Community Awards.  Find out more.
