Enjoying the Outdoors Together

Getting outdoors has lots of benefits for families with young children.

It’s the perfect place for children to be physically active, use their imaginations, explore and learn. It’s great for everyone’s mental and physical health too.

Enjoying the Outdoors Together

This booklet gives lots of simple ideas of things to do outdoors in Bradford's wonderful parks and greenspaces, and how good this is for the whole family.

Better Place

It's never been easier to enjoy the outdoors together in Bradford thanks to the Better Place project which has created lots of special areas for families with young children in local parks and green spaces.

They've been working their magic across parks, pocket parks, community centres, streets and green spaces all across Bowling and Barkerend, Bradford Moor and Little Horton for families with children aged 0-3.
