What brilliant feedback to receive as we reflect on another incredible summer of Park Nights! ๐
It's been a privilege to spend our evenings alongside young people in the parks and community spaces where they already choose to spend their time. ๐ณ
That's what Park Nights is all about โ bringing youth provision directly to young people, building trusted relationships and creating safe, positive spaces where they can connect, grow in confidence and feel a sense of belonging. ๐ซถ
At our final sessions of 2026, we asked young people to share their thoughts, and the results speak for themselves! ๐ฌ

These are more than just numbers. They show the value of being present in young people's communities, giving them somewhere positive to spend their evenings and building relationships that can make a lasting difference. ๐
Park Nights is shaped by young people, for young people, so hearing what these sessions mean to them is incredibly special.
And there's more to comeโฆ
๐ฅ Keep an eye out for our next video, where you'll hear directly from the young people themselves!
A huge thank you to The National Lottery Community Fund, local councils, our partners and everyone who helped make another summer of Park Nights possible! ๐ณโจ
