We want to give everyone the opportunity to feedback, share ideas, and influence decisions that affect them. Your say Belfast helps you find and participate in the consultations that matter to you. Through this engagement platform you can have your say on all sorts of issues, activities and projects that affect you, your neighbourhood or your city.&nbsp;We&#39;d love to hear from you. &nbsp;You can fill in our surveys without having to register or sign in, but you will need to register to get involved in the online conversations or to receive updates about future consultations. &nbsp;

Our Vision

Council is working in partnership with the <a href="http://sibni.org/project/urban-villages-regeneration-initiative/" target="_blank" title="Opens in a new Window">Urban Villages Initiative</a> to improve our existing parks and to create new parks, play parks and open spaces across Belfast. In Spring 2022 we are looking forward and are starting to evaluate how well these improvement projects have worked and whether people are better off as result. We have developed a short survey for the following 4 parks and playgrounds. If you have visited these parks, please let us know what you think by clicking on the survey links below. . <ul><li><a class="fr-green" href="https://yoursay.belfastcity.gov.uk/parks-oba/survey_tools/ballymacarrett" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ballymacarrett Walkway Survey</a></li><li><a class="fr-green" href="https://yoursay.belfastcity.gov.uk/parks-oba/survey_tools/glenbryn" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Glenbryn Play Park</a></li><li><a class="fr-green" href="https://yoursay.belfastcity.gov.uk/parks-oba/survey_tools/rev-robert-bradford" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Reverend Robert Bradford Memorial Park</a></li><li><a class="fr-green" href="https://yoursay.belfastcity.gov.uk/parks-oba/survey_tools/sandy-row-park" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sandy Row Play Park</a></li></ul> <hr>Registered users of our Your Say Belfast platform You do not have to sign in or register on our Your Say Belfast platform to take part in these surveys.
